Surf's Up!

Today, I surfed! It was my very first attempt so of course I was aweful despite all the tips during my lesson, but man o man...it was so so much fun. My roomate Lance and I went during our lunch break and walked the short distance from work and headed down to the Real Surf Co. at Lyall Bay. We had been trying to go for the past 3-4 days but bad weather and no waves made it impossible. Today the waves weren't great (2 out of 4 according to the internets) but I was able, by the end of the day, to actually ride a few. Not for very long but is was so cool to actually get ontop of a wave, and man I had some awesome wipe-outs. I'll try to get Simon to take some photos of us on one of the next trips. We will certainly be making this a regular thing.
