I actually know how to surf. Or at least I did -- it's been over 10 years
since I last did it (coincidentally coinciding with the date of my
marriage... listening Declan?)

But I've taken up a hobby more suited to Okinawa: sea kayaking. Great fun,
and unlike surfing you can carry around a cooler with you.
