It's Friday the 13th! I am hoping that makes it a lucky day for me. It's been yet another tough week on the home front for many non-travelers, so maybe some travel reads will help to lift our spirits. Have a look at these....

The Vans Triple Crown of Surfing is under way on the North Shore of Oahu, and Pupukea is right in the thick of things. [via Honolulu Magazine]
Speaking of surfing, Peru's hoping to find a way to make surf travel sustainable. [via Intelligent Travel]
It's surf season here in Hawaii, but in other parts of the northern hemisphere it's also that time of year to dust off your skis or snowboard! Here's a great guide to responsible skiing. [via Green Traveller]
It may be wintertime in Italy, but that shouldn't prevent you from dreaming of one of these beautiful Italian isles. [via BootsNAll]
The web has been abuzz on the latest espionage charges on the three American hikers that were caught within Iran's borders back in July. I hope they return home safely -- and soon, but could serve as a serious bargaining chip between the U.S. and Iran. Stay tuned... [via Peter Greenberg and Time]

'Til Monday, have a great weekend!
