The little Joys of Island life

I found the photo above on a surf photographers forum by someone posting as tarikbrowne (his photos are awesome!). It's a shot of my favorite break on the south coast called 'freights bay', it's a left reef-break that rarely gets above 6' - 7' but when it does break, it's usually a very clean wave, which suits my basic level skills perfectly.

I ended up spending the entire morning last Sunday out there. I didn't plan for it to end up that way, and nothing spectacular in surf terms, maybe only waist high. But, it just was a really nice morning, clear sky, clearer water and the occasional turtle popping up for air. So it just panned out that whenever I decided that it was time to head in, a nice set would roll through and I'd say to myself "...just one more"

Anytime I travel for extended periods it's things like this I miss the most, coincidentally, it also happens to be one of the many reasons I love Barbados that much more.

N.B. If anyone could give me a site for Tarikbrowne so I could link to it that'd be great
