I didn't have to think for very long to decide what to choose for this week's theme. Sun, sand, excitement, athleticism and competition . . . beach volleyball has it all!
One summer me and my friends decided it would be fun to learn how to play the game correctly so we signed up for beach volleyball classes. It was so hard it took us almost the entire course before we managed to volley at least once over the net before the ball hit the sand. My hands and arms were so red from the impact of the ball and I constantly had to dust off the sand from diving all over the court to try to reach the ball. Thank goodness we all sort of stunk at this game and it wasn't just me. I think the only high point of the whole experience were the laughs and the beautiful sunsets we had during class.
Needless to say, I think this is a sport that I will be completely satisfied watching from the sidelines. :)
I enjoy watching it!! gorgeous sunset picture too.

I too am a spectator. Beach volleyball seems to attract many spectators. The players tend to be good looking and have great bodies to show off, that explains why I can only watch and not suitable to participate. LOL
ReplyDeleteCheerful pictures ! Love to watch these sports too, especially on a beach :)!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like regular volleyball's easier! :O
ReplyDeleteHi everyone, thanks so much for your comments . . .
ReplyDeleteMar, thanks for liking my sunset.
ECL, lol!
Gattina, the beach as part of the sport is a definite bonus. :)
YTSL, I think regular volleyball does seem eaiser. And there's more players to cover the entire court. :)
Thanks everyone, hope you all have a great weekend.
I haven't played volleyball since high school! I thought it was fun but I wasn't very good. That sunset is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Annie, I'm sure you were better than me! Yes, we saw some amazing sunsets while playing. Maybe that's why we weren't good? Distractions . . . he, he!
ReplyDeleteHope you get to watch Idol tomorrow. :)
