Sunday mornin' comin' down

Well - actually he was going up, but what the heck - if one can't invoke artistic licence every now and again...! But it was Sunday morning - I waited for him to come back so that I could get the "true" photo, but he just took too long and we had to leave. However, I took a photo of him coming down after his trip on Saturday afternoon, and it looked just like this, just not as clear and crisp as this photo!
Amazing to see - starts the motor, a short run on the beach, and then he's off - and I mean Off with a capital "O"! I have no idea exactly how much distance he covered, but I actually lost sight of him, he was so far away! And he was gone for over an hour. What an unbelievable experience that must be!
