Yesterday we woke up early and drove up to Malibu with our friends HP and Kazu to go surfing at kazu's favorite spot further up North. It took us a while to get there and when we did, it was overcast, with a very uneven rocky bottom which terrifies me (still a total noob at surfing) and TONS of really good surfers competing for waves. None of which appeal to me. I tried catching a couple of waves but I was just too stressed to have a good time. So we wrapped up early and started heading back south, when just past there we glimpsed a couple of surfers at a sandy beach down a steep path. We parked and checked it out, and found an AWESOME point break, with a sandy beach and big slow moving beautiful powerful waves coming in. With only 5-10 surfers in the water at any given point, there was plenty of room for all of us. I caught some of my best waves yet, the sun came out, the water was SUPER clean and refreshing, and Yoko caught some HUGE WAVES on her boogie board too. One of the best days yet!
That night we went hiking in the Santa Monica mountains with Grampa, everyone had a great time. When we got home we had a bunch of beers and watched the Lord of the Rings: Two Towers extended edition. Grampa ended up sleeping over and today we hooked up my surround sound system finally and tonight we will watch Return of the King in surround sound, after a BBQ chicken dinner down by the pool!
Weekends in Santa Monica kick ass.
