End of Drought

And then there were waves…finally. After what seemed like ages of flatness, the weekend finally brought some waves. To be honest, I was not too upset about the absence of waves as I was travelling again for work where there were no waves where I was anyway. Every morning I would check the surf on the cam and I have to admit, it was with a little sigh of relief to discover that I did not miss out on anything. I thought I would at least miss out on Friday but even Friday was flat as.

Saturday morning was lovely. The sun was out, no wind and first signs of some swell. Keen as, I took Bruce, my longboard out and had some fun waves. Well, most of it was fun. Apart from a minor incident, which I still can’t quite believe it happened. I was lying on my long board, basking in the sun, waiting for some waves….and…unf…ing believable…someone gave me a slap on the bum. I did not know what to say or do. I was shocked. I was actually speechless about the behavior. WTF? What was he thinking? I should have slapped him in the face but was taken by surprise and too slow…dirty old bastard…baeh…

Ok apart from that, surf was fun. I went for another surf in the afternoon but by the time I got in again the tide was too low. Sunday was another glorious day with fun waves all day…it was still a tad fat and not exactly massive in Bondi so I took Bruce out again. And, it was heaps of fun again. This time without any further incidents…

Also, I’m very excited to report that we are in for some waves this week. Whoop. Whoop. Mostly NE swell, so Maroubra will probably the pick of the bunch but there should be enough swell to wrap around into Bondi. Only shame that it’s dark after work…only one surf a day for a while…

Have a great week everyone.
