Wakeboarding at Little Bow Lake

We went to Litle Bow Lake to go wake boarding with George and Horatio Nathalias cousins or family friends.

They have a great speedboat with tanks in the front to adjust the amount of wake given off (in fact you can surf a surfboard off the bow wave if you want, they have ordered one but it didnt come in time) There were 8 of us aboard, 9 including Billi, Nat went before me and was a pro (like any sport she tries she makes it look easy), and I went last and dominated the field from the word go!!!!

I even did a switch (180 degree board turn) without knowing that it was difficult and not to be tried early on and went one handed.

(Dad before you get upset I've been asking around and there are no Windsurfers or Sailers out here because the wind is soo unpredicatble, you can go for a week or so with no wind....theres no sea here to mix things up!)

And Mum, "HI SUE", Nat and I both managed to hurt ourselves, but Nat is still sore and I'm better.

Nathalia stood up first time!

I got to undo the zipper!!
































Time for Gilesey to tear the wake

Been wakeboarding, the town of Vulcan is on the way back to Calgary. Live long and prosper!

Great its working!

So I've missed out a huge chunk and you'll have to wait and buy my memoirs for all that's happened over xmas. The main points are that I've met an amazing girl called Nathalia who is half Romanian half Hungarian and all Canadian! We met my first night in Calgary and I've more or less decided to stay in Canada now! She's very cool is a master Snowboarder and puts Ramsey to shame in the kitchen (stay tuned for some fantastic soups!) oh and she's bloody gorgeous! Which means visa stress (HI SUE) getting a job as a Landscape Architect for the most laid back boss ever (may I introduce Deron Miller) and other general paperworks. Highlights that you'll have to wait for include: with the Romanians, learning to snowboard, Dan MIA, lost on highways in blizzards, kayaking in Nanaimo, camping like real Canuks, rafting in Calgary and much more! But I promise you won't be missing out on anymore shenanigans! This weekend is my birthday camp and the weather is meant to be a little odd...
