🌊 SURF 'N TURF 🏝️

-THE ISLAND LIFE-

Agatha Christie (1890-1976) at Waikiki Beach, Hawaii, circa 1922.

Did you know that Agatha Christie was one of the UK’s first surfers and thought to be the first Western woman to stand up on a surfboard.

In this picture, she is standing with a board borrowed from a surfer named Fred. Sharing the same name as her father Frederick Alvah Miller, who died when she was ten years old, the gesture meant a lot to her.

In describing surfing, Agatha said, "Oh it was heaven! Nothing like rushing through the water at what seems to you a speed of about two hundred miles an hour. It is one of the most perfect physical pleasures I have known."
