Surfing Weekend



A whole collection of NKC families and individuals made their way to that sufing paradise of the north east coast .... Satburn-By-The-Sea. The weather was kinder than the forecast suggested, the surf was as big as the predictions, but not as well formed. None of this altered the determination of those there to have a good time. The motly collection of kayaks, sit-on-tops and boogie boards took to the sea en masse on Saturday, with some die-hards only getting off the water for a bite to eat and a drink before getting out there again.
Some of us had already done a session on the biggest surf on Friday afternoon, all did at least one session on Saturday and most could not resist another one on Sunday & Mick did all four.

So a new generation has been introduced to the delights of Saltburn and camping at Runswick Bay and most are sure to return now that the bug has bitten. The prize for the most waterlogged should be shared by Eddie & Matt who were hardly out of the water long enough to swallow the hastly lunch that parents insisted on distracting them with.

Thanks to Gilly for the coaching. Thanks to Caroline for the photos. The rest are in the Picasa Album or the NKC Gallery.
