【島暮らし_夫のはじめてシリーズ】　はじめての海

私の夫は，ザンビア人です。ザンビアは中央アフリカに位置する内陸国です。つまり，海がありません！！ザンベジ川という海のように水平線の見える大きな川はあります。その中流には世界三大瀑布のひとつのヴィクトリアフォールズもあります。

江田島に来て，毎日のようにキラキラした海をみて，目を輝かせます。

お隣の倉橋島に行った際，初めて海に入りました。今にもズボンを脱いで，飛び込みそうな状況でしたが，すでに9月。遊泳期間が終わってたので，あやしい人にならないように，必死で止めました（笑）。

気持ちよさそうな様子をどうぞ！手で平泳ぎをしているのは，頭の中ではもう水の中で泳いでいたそうです。

はじめての経験って、見ててもワクワクするね！

First time in the sea
My husband is Zambian. Zambia is a landlocked country in Central Africa. In other words, there is no sea! There is a big river called the Zambezi River, which has a horizon like the sea. The Victoria Falls, one of the world's three largest waterfalls, is located in the middle of the Zambezi River.

After coming to Etajima, he sees the sparkling sea every day and his eyes light up.
When I visited the neighboring island of Kurahashi, he went into the sea for the first time. He was about to take off his trousers and jump in at any moment, but it was already September. The swimming period in the sea was over, so I tried my best to stop him. Here's a look at how good he felt! He's doing the breaststroke with his hands, in his head he was already swimming in the water :-)
