Sometimes you do things that you know might not be the best idea…. but you do them anyway.
Today was one of those days.
When I awoke this morning, my plan was to work on a web site, and shoot a idols show this evening ( more on this in another blog)
Chris suggested we go to Enoshima island… which is on the pacific
He has asked a couple of times and I have always had an excuse… and I could ( and did) use the shoot as an excuse.
A bit of background… I love sailing. Along with photography and salsa, it is one of my passions. Knowing I can’t have it all, I have tried to curtail my sailing so I could afford to come here…to Tokyo.
I was concerned that if I saw the ocean…. and boats…. it may stirr up my passions.
It was a very worhtwhile concern.  The marina on the island was used as the sailing club for the 1964 Olympics. The number and different style of boats were overwhelming….
The water was warm…the wind perfect…. waves were interesting…. damn ….I so much wanted to be out there…..
Since Chris seems to have a different idea about time then the rest of the world (” it will take us 45 minutes to get there”…. try 1 hour 45 minutes) I missed the shoot.
I am now at the house…. cleaning sand out of my toes… realizing what an amazing place Enoshima island is….and trying to figure out how I am going to work sailing into my immediate life again
Pictures to come.
