We can't see Enoshima because of the fog

I am sorry that my weather cast for today was off. We can't see Enoshima, even Inamuragasaki from Zaimokuza because of the fog up to 3:00PM. then, I heard that there was an accident of two cargo vessels in Tokyo Bay this morning.

However, this weather condition was perfect for surfers because of big waves which have been given by behind the low pressure system. It was like a typical foggy day on a rainy season, but this time, on spring. I feel that the winter gone by was cold enough so that the season is changing to summer rapidly. This Saturday might be a good day for sailing.

It was a beautiful spring day at Kamakura. The lecture of the day contained how to maintain the speed by keeping a dgree of angle for going close hauled, the relationship of movement between tell-tails and speeding, and how to maintain the heeling position.

Then, on the sea, you did it! The movement of every boat on the ocean was really great and we enjoyed a day.
