Girls Who Sail With The Ogopogo
My daughter Tabs and her cousin Nem have spent part of their summer taking sailing, windsurfing and paddle board lessons on Okanagan Lake with The Central Okanagan Sailing Association (COSA). Sailing is their favourite. The girls take turns being the skipper and captain. They enjoy sailing so much that they want to start racing together next summer.
Sailing is the perfect way to get around on the water; it combines nature and sports. I encourage my family to do sports that require one to use their own steam to get around—good for our health and the environment.
Motorized water vehicles often ruin nature—they are noisy, pollute the air and water and are a danger to those who like to be active in the water. When I visited Cuba, what I loved about being on the water was simply the peacefulness of the ocean—no motor boats, no jet skis. Water sports are limited to natural sports like kite surfing, sailing, wind surfing, diving etc….Peace…
I hope you enjoy the photos I took of the girls on the lake.
