冬〜春にかけて、１年で１番水温が下がる季節でもあります。
２月、３月に入ると海開きも始まり、晴れた日は日陽射しもとても暖かく、陽気は初夏のような気温を迎えます。
本州では決してできないこと、寒い時期に子供と一緒に波乗りを楽しむこと。沖縄は関東と違い暖かいし、サーフィンもできるんだね、と子供ながらに色々考えながら海に入る。
同じ日本なのに不思議だね、と自然を五感で感じながら体験するサーフィン体験。
こういう時期に体験するからこそ、どこか特別で子供に伝えたいものもたくさんあるのかと感じます。
沖縄の大地の恵みに感謝をしつつ、今日も最高な波でサーフィンができましたね。波がくるときも『優しい波』『強い波』色々と体感しながら自然のあり方を学んでいます。
沖縄体験、大自然でのサーフィンは大人にとってもとても有意義な
時間になることでしょう。
Winter and spring are the seasons when the water temperature is at its lowest.
In February and March, the beaches open, and on sunny days, the sunshine is very warm, and the weather becomes like early summer.
It’s something you can’t do on Honshu: enjoying surfing with your children during the cold season. Children enter the ocean, thinking things like, “Okinawa is warmer than Kanto, and we can surf here!”
It’s amazing how things are different even though it’s the same Japan, and they experience surfing while feeling nature with all their senses.
I feel that experiencing it at this time of year is somehow special, and there are many things I want to convey to my children.
With gratitude for the blessings of Okinawa’s land, we were able to surf on fantastic waves today. As the waves come, they learn about nature by experiencing different kinds of waves, from “gentle waves” to “strong waves.”
An Okinawan experience, surfing in the great outdoors, will surely be a very meaningful time for adults as well.
