While
we were busy oohing - aahing and clicking away, something or rather someone
appeared out of nowhere that took our breath away. A solo paddle boarder in
shorts (!) cut right across our bow. Could this be an illusion, or for a moment, a ghost. Well, it is all real according to the crew. There is a training camp for extreme
sports nearby and these are 'solo challengers'. This very tall, lean, super athletic looking young woman was initially paddling on her exposed knees (right) as the water must be close to freezing, when
she reached us she stood up to take a bow (left) with The Big One behind her. We were speechless! What does it
take on the determination and stamina scales to try something like this, it was
unimaginable.
