		<description><![CDATA[I’ve returned from the Jan ’10 KaYoga trip a couple of days ago and still can’t stop thinking about it.

Combining kayaking and yoga is brilliant. The two practices build on each other philosophically, making the whole experience richer than the sum of its parts. And there is a more earthly benefit, too: Because of the yoga, I felt no pain or stiffness at all from the paddling.

Bruce is an extraordinarily knowledgeable and devoted instructor and guide. His deep love of the sea—and of the natural world in general—is infectious. And he is the most patient teacher I have ever met, answering the same questions over and over, never exhibiting even a hint of annoyance. He pays close attention to each individual and his/her needs, which made us all, regardless of our level of experience or ability, feel comfortable and relaxed on the water and on land from beginning to end. He’s also a terrific cook!

Lauri’s yoga instruction is warm and supportive. She also pays an extraordinary amount of attention to each individual, tailoring every pose to each person’s needs and abilities. But her caring doesn’t end when the yoga practice closes. She’s always watching, always caring, always supporting. Ahhh. “It’s all good,” she says. And it really is.

Logistically, every step of the trip was beautifully executed. All the connections were flawless, and every single person we dealt with was friendly, professional, and helpful.

-Sharon AvRutick, Pleasantville, NY, El Espiritu del Mar, 5-day Yoga and Kayaking in Costa Rica

		<description><![CDATA[Seascape will return to Costa Rica and open its southern base Nov. 16. Today’s blog is adapted from an article by Jennifer Harter of Santa Teresa:

"Playa Quesera, is definitely amongst the most unspoiled beaches I’ve visited in Costa Rica, creating a surreal castaway feel. This place is a true gem, a small cove of white sand and the most intensely toned waters, surrounded by yellowish stone walls and remarkable rock formations. As Frances and Bruce set up our picnic, we were free to help, explore, photograph or swim. I couldn’t believe we were on the Pacific Coast; I felt like we had just arrived on a secluded Caribbean cove...."]]></description>

“At first this pissed me off, you know,” he continued. “Lots of extra work to get these fellas out of the nets. Then one time I grabbed one innocently by the tail and all of a sudden the porpoise went limp..."]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today’s blog comes from Laurice D. Nemetz, who works as a yoga teacher and dance/movement therapist throughout Westchester County in New York. Lauri was the instructor on El Espiritu del Mar, Seacape’s pilot yoga and paddling trip in Costa Rica, and on Ebb &#038; Flow, the first yoga/kayak combo on Deer Island in the Bay of Fundy. We are planning yoga and sea kayaking trips with her for 2010 January 9-17 and May 14-22 in Costa Rica, and August 6-9 in New Brunswick.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This time of year is spectacular for wildlife viewing in the Bay of Fundy. Butterflies are careening around the rose bushes outside my window as I write this and I can hear an osprey’s warning cry overhead. Not only are huge pods of Harbour Porpoises circling our groups daily, as if on cue, but whale sightings by paddlers not too far from our base are becoming less and less rare.

I was recently assigned to write about Seascape’s “signature moment” for a new program called “Inner Journeys” that we were invited to be a part of by New Brunswick Tourism and Parks. I think wildlife lovers anywhere will enjoy the result.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you Bruce, Frances, Guy and Tom for an absolutely wonderful trip in Newfoundland. From the hospitality of Judi and John, to the great guidance from Guy and Tom and the sheer wonder of experiencing the beauty of the Bay of Exploits from the viewpoint of the kayak, we have only great things to say about our trip. We had the chance to experience a wide variety of paddling conditions and we enjoyed some of the challenges the more vigorous waters presented to us. We are also happy that we were able to learn from each of the situations and gain more confidence in our paddling and kayak maneuvers. This trip is one of the highlights of all of our travels.  

-Roxanne Martel, Montreal, Quebec, 7-day trip in Bay of Exploits

		<description><![CDATA[Three separate proposals to build gargantuan marine terminals on the Maine shoreline have threatened to turn the traditional tourism, fishing and aquaculture economy near Deer Island into an industrial zone fraught with the emission of six tons of greenhouse gases and toxic chemicals on a daily basis. Gigantic tankers, each accompanied by a gunboat to protect the potentially hazardous cargo, could soon change the land and seascapes for tour operators, fishermen and fish farmers who depend on the pristine nature of the area. 

“These massive boats would have a devastating effect on the wildlife in the area and the presence of this huge offloading facility in our backyard would have an enormous environmental impact,” said Bruce Smith. ]]></description>
