Well the highlight of Labour Day weekend Sunday was definitely seeing Vanessa and Len out windsurfing together. They met in Bonaire 11 years ago, and are now expecting their first child in December.

This may well be the last time they windsurf together before the baby comes. Vanessa looks great and was very comfortable on the board! Len was a good partner as always. She was using her favourite 5.7 Firefly she used when she worked at Jibe City in Bonaire for 5 years.
They started out windsurfing way out into the Bay...

Back at the Launch Pad, I had fun getting them to try some tandem windsurfing.
 |
| What a great pair of windsurfers! |
I also got a quick 30 minute foil session in for myself. Amazing for Sept 1st, I was just in shorts with a Lycra, it was perfect in the 22c air, moderate sun and light wind.

A fun day for sure. Vanessa and Len windsurfing together, I get some foiling, and two more happy beginners to add to my list for the summer.
(Postscript,
Vanessa did get one more pregant windsurfing session in Toronto and almost got planing!)
