Yoga With a View – 2
Well, it is that time of year when Carolyn R retreats to her yoga, island getaway, i.e. Carriacou, for about a month or so. It happens every January and then again in July/Aug.
This is the view from her yoga mat as she does her daily practice on her “front porch.”
Quite a sight!
Earlier in the week our Maryland weather was blowy, chilly and blustery and today was quite grand for January, but really now does it / can it compare to this? Well at least we have the pictures to at least contemplate.
In case you thought the above photo was a fluke or a lucky shot, here it is again from a slightly different angle. Seems pretty authentic to me!
Two years ago we posted about her island getaway, “Yoga with a View!!“, see that blog post here…
Carolyn, have a great stay, and maybe – just maybe – we will allow you back in class when you return. We shall think about it 🙂
Thanks for sending the pics & see you soon!
Updated 11 Jan 2012: I asked Carolyn to send some pics of the Pelicans and here they are:
Is this not an incredible looking bird?
In this modern, digital, techno-everything era, we can sometimes forget about the natural wonders and how we share this earth with some remarkable creatures.
Here is what Carolyn writes:
I am enjoying the pelicans so much, it’s hard to send just a few pictures. They are huge, really, as they fly low over your head when you’re in the water. They dive from the air, and just as they hit the water, their wings spread like a parachute to slow them down. Otherwise, they’d get stuck in the sand, beak down!
I do hope you’ll permit me back in class!! Practice is more rigorous with Satyam; I get distracted here, between the changing colors of the sea, birds and the rustling palm fronds. Not to mention the pelicans diving in the cove below. Maybe we could organize yoga here sometime. Our veranda is 48 feet by 12 feet, and there’s a relatively flat beach a few minutes’ walk away. . .See you at the end of the month. Carolyn
Wow – take a few photos of those pelicans – have a great stay – enjoy your practice – and we will see you soon – your space is reserved 🙂
