August 2005. One day in Prickly Pear, Anguilla
Melissa and Judd went to Anguilla for vacation.
We kited and we spend on day in Prickly Pear for snorkeling
and visiting this paradise.
You know already Judd, this guy helps me a
lot for my websites, he's a marketing consultant... a great
guy.. my buddy ;-). Melissa is his sister, a professional
model in Canada, a really smart girl and so sweet. I wil tell
more next month about us.
Prickly Pear is an offshore cay about 6 miles
from Road Bay. Beyond it a few more miles is Dog Island, even
bigger and with 5 good beaches. There are two beach bars on
Prickly Pear, but both were closed. Although Prickly Pear
is sometimes very busy with yachts and day cruises from St
Martin, it was empty for our visit. The interior of Prickly
Pear has a mangrove pond, but does not invite exploration
without good shoes and protective pants.

February 2005. Few days at Saint-Martin,
Hotel Marquis.
We went to this romantic with my wife for
three days. With only 17 rooms and suites, we offer a truly
stress-free and relaxing environment. All rooms have a private
terrace with a dramatic view over the ocean. Come and relax
alongside the pool, visit the spa and sport center, or enjoy
the pristine water of the private beach.
Lush green hills, sun-kissed shores and historic buildings.
World-class dining, duty-free shopping and red-hot casinos.
You'll find all this and more in just 37 square miles of tropical
paradise in St.Martin.
I will
tell more via this link....

December 2004. Tarifa, South of Spain.
Create your own web page... here one second example from my
sister.
My sister went to Tarifa, South of Spain for
few days. Tarifa is the great Spot for Windsurfing, Kitesurfing
from Europe and I love Spain and Andalusia. I used to go to
this magic country and people.
About this city. Tarifa transformed
from a strategic military fortress to a remote fishing town,
and today tourism flourishes in this melting pot of cultures.
Every population which either settled or passed by has left
its imprint. This is evident from the traces of ancient Rome
to the modern windsurfing culture although Tarifa's Moorish
style is still predominant with its medina (old city centre).
This modern transformation, which avoided the mistakes made
by the much of the mass Spanish tourism of the 60’s,
has reinvented itself by beautifully blending its hotels and
other accommodation facilities both along its virgin coastline
and within the old city walls.
Wind Capital. Tarifa has
become known as 'the Wind Capital' for many different reasons.
Its wind reliability probably tops them all. It is very difficult
to have two consecutive non windy days, as the detailed comparative
chart shows.
However conditions are not always constant. It is wise to
bring your full range of sails (renting locally is any
easy option with the many schools spread along the beach).
Here it is just as common to sail with your 3.5 m2 as it is
with your 6.5 m2, even if I personally consider the 4.5 m2
as the ideal sail. The new trend is to use a wave board in
strong winds and kitesurf when winds are weaker. Actually
kiters are starting to go out in all conditions!
