Ritrovare i vecchi amici, incontrarne di nuovi, essere avvolti dagli odori intensi della macchia, pagaiare nel vento, scoprire i mille segreti di Minorca: quattro giorni intensi, pieni, divertenti, ricchi di esperienze, incontri, confronti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YK91khlDZwc/Tr-2ujMbWjI/AAAAAAAACY0/svpme2A50_k/s1600/PA080711.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YK91khlDZwc/Tr-2ujMbWjI/AAAAAAAACY0/svpme2A50_k/s400/PA080711.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ho fatto il viaggio in aereo da Barcellona in compagnia di una grande amica, Carme Adell, anche lei invitata al meeting internazionale per tenere una conferenza sulle sue tante attività nel mondo del kayak, compresi viaggi, avventure ed allenamenti con persone diversamente abili.&lt;br /&gt;Carlos e Teresa di "Menorca en kayak" ci hanno riservato una stanza nella casa rural dove erano ospitati i 40 partecipanti al raduno: a causa delle condizioni meteo e del forte vento di tramontana hanno potuto pagaiare solo lungo il versante meridionale dell'isola, però il morale era talmente alto che il venerdì mattina sono entrati tutti in acqua per la sessione che ho tenuto su salvataggi e traini.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Or_Y5k6b_OM/Tr-22oy9t8I/AAAAAAAACY8/lvugVA1MOHk/s1600/PA074684.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="285px" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Or_Y5k6b_OM/Tr-22oy9t8I/AAAAAAAACY8/lvugVA1MOHk/s400/PA074684.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il breafing è iniziato proprio quando il cielo si andava coprendo di nuvole nere ed i primi esercizi in coppia li abbiamo eseguiti sotto la pioggia battente. La temperatura dell'acqua era perfetta, specie in rapporto al vento freddo che si andava intensificando, e nonostante l'abbigliamento ancora estivo quasi tutti han trascorso più di tre ore a mollo... Abbiamo così praticato autosalvataggi groenlandesi, salvataggi assistiti, svuotamenti dei kayak, rientri di lato, di poppa, tra i due kayak, di schiena, di pancia e con tutte le possibili varianti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pzKI5JcI6JU/Tr-29-6FeHI/AAAAAAAACZE/74bNK6hGOV0/s1600/PA074682.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="268px" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pzKI5JcI6JU/Tr-29-6FeHI/AAAAAAAACZE/74bNK6hGOV0/s400/PA074682.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Siamo poi passati ai traini con la contact line e con la cima di traino, sperimentando le varie tecniche di assistenza in mare ad un compagno in difficoltà, per chiudere con un gioco di gruppo che ha divertito tutti: il traino a cronometro a squadre con la simulazione di un infortunio.&lt;br /&gt;Un applauso spontaneo dell'intero gruppo ha chiuso la sessione in acqua e mi ha sopreso e divertito: il mio spagnolo mi ha aiutato a superare la prova più difficile, catturare l'attenzione! "Es muy comunicativa", mi ha detto sorridendo Javier Knorr, un grande maestro spagnolo e profondo conoscitore della cultura Inuit, tanto da trascorrere ogni anno 4-5 mesi nel sud della Groenlandia. &lt;br /&gt;Non ancora del tutto sazi, abbiamo navigato verso l'Isla d'en Colom per assaggiare il mare gonfiato dal vento, raffiche a 40 km orari che alzavano cavalloni frangenti appena fuori dalla baia protetta di Es Grau. E' stato esaltante sperimentare in gruppo la navigazione d'altura, ancora di più constatare come in tanti fossero stimolati dalle condizioni del mare a praticare appoggi, timonate e persino eskimi. Quel che si dice approfittare del momento...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Kgt010edwpk/Tr-3J15Tt-I/AAAAAAAACZM/qHfy_3trHww/s1600/PA080796.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="272px" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Kgt010edwpk/Tr-3J15Tt-I/AAAAAAAACZM/qHfy_3trHww/s400/PA080796.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Purtroppo, le condizioni non ci hanno permesso di proseguire nel pomeriggio con il previsto corso di eskimo, però la conferenza serale è stata un piccolo successo di cui parlo nel blog dedicato al viaggio a Creta. La giornata seguente, in cui l'isola era spazzata dalla tramontana ad 80 km orari, l'abbiamo riservata al turismo di terra, con tanti momenti molto intensi per condividere ancora la passione per il mare. Vedere il faro di Cap Favaritx sommerso dalle onde spumeggianti e non poter mantenere la posizione eretta a causa del vento, ci ha fatto pensare che di tanto in tanto non è male rimanere a terra e che bisogna sempre sapere quando è il momento di farlo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a

intensa, con l'estrazione di un kayak rosso fiammante che ha fatto la felicità di una canoista minorchina e con una sessione collettiva sui salvataggi durante la cena conclusiva, utilizzando tovaglioli, saliera, pepiera e stuzzicadenti per simulare kayak, kayakers e pagaie in varie condizioni di mare mosso: illuminante!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

/&gt;Lasciare Isabel, Pep, Celsa, Rahul, Victor e tutti gli altri intenti al barbeque domenicale per andare in aeroporto è stato difficile, però sono tornata a casa carica di emozioni... ed una gran voglia di tornare ancora a Minorca: la prima settimana di ottobre di ogni anno è dedicata alle Jornades, un'occasione imperdibile per scoprire le bellezze dell'isola, una delle più suggestive del Mediterraneo, però dopo quest'ultimo incontro non so se riuscirò ad aspettare così tanto tempo per poter solcare ancora una volta i suoi mari burrascosi!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a

La Tramontana, il vento da nord del Mediterraneo, soffiava da tre giorni ed era previsto che continuasse per un'altra settimana. Io avevo sperato di circumnavigare Minorca, ma le coste ad ovest, nord ed est erano tutte battute da mare grosso e vento forza sette..."&lt;br /&gt;L'Isola del Vento non smentisce mai la sua fama!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 110px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 147px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435866543707660386" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rz0fpUXA-7c/S3AT0jAgIGI/AAAAAAAAABU/vu5i6RzS9uE/s320/Feb10Cover-thumb.jpg" /&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;The February number of the U.S. magazine contains a long and detailed article written by its editor Christopher Cunningham: he has visited the island the last month of October 2009 for the fourth edition of the "Jornadas de Menorca en kayak".&lt;br /&gt;Discouraged to not have been able to begin the circumnavigation of the island, wisecrack in that days from the usual north wind, the famous kayaker has devoted himself to the meticulous discovery of a brief line of coast of just 25 miles, one of the most beautiful of the Mediterranean, disseminated of coves by the exotic names: Biniancolla, Macarella, Mitjana.&lt;br /&gt;"Where stones sing" has allowed us to visit Minorca again, few days after our return and above all to read that island, that sea and that wind with the eyes of a well-known sea kayaker: "The rocks surrounding the lighthouse at Cap Favaritx were veiled in spray thrown thirty feet into the air and the entire ragged perimeter of the cape was awash in white foam... The Tramaontana, the Mediterranean's north wind, had been blowing for three days and was forecast to continue for another week. I had hoped to circumnavigate Menorca, but the west, north and east coasts were all being grated by heavy seas and Force-7 winds..."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;Menorca is indeed the Island of the Wind!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3834433979876079494-6852075274224816409?l=minorcakayaktour2009.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://minorcakayaktour2009.blogspot.com/feeds/6852075274224816409/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://minorcakayaktour2009.blogspot.com/2010/02/sea-kayaker-magazine.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3834433979876079494/posts/default/6852075274224816409'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3834433979876079494/posts/default/6852075274224816409'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://minorcakayaktour2009.blogspot.com/2010/02/sea-kayaker-magazine.html' title='Sea Kayaker Magazine...'/><author><name>Tatiana</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17880139533942001071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rz0fpUXA-7c/S11HGPISetI/AAAAAAAAAAM/yUtUPXGfAgw/S220/Tati+x+CKI-R.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rz0fpUXA-7c/S3AT0jAgIGI/AAAAAAAAABU/vu5i6RzS9uE/s72-c/Feb10Cover-thumb.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3834433979876079494.post-6951281729505740390</id><published>2010-02-08T10:01:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-08T10:01:00.655+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Man at work...</title><content type='html'>Mauro si è messo al lavoro già da diverse settimana, non appena rientrato dal viaggio in kayak a Minorca: senza soluzione di continuità è passato dal kayak al computer, maneggiando con eguale sapienza il mouse e la pagaia!&lt;br /&gt;Abbiamo selezionato le immagini migliori del periplo dell'isola e stiamo sistemando percorsi e narrazioni per soddisfare la curiosità di quanti ci hanno già sollecitato nuovi racconti di viaggio...&lt;br /&gt;Non ci vorrà ancora molto!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;
