Surfed with ryan early on thursday morning. The swell started picking up and i was getting cold and tired so i headed in. Ryan caught a sweet right to end the session, a great birthday wave for him.
Made a light breakfast while ryan and claire packed up, then we headed into oakura for lunch and some wifi. Enjoyed a tasty lunch of a venison burger and fried squid, gotta splurge every once in awhile..
Said our goodbyes to ryan and claire after lunch. Cindy and i then drove over into new plymouth. Quite a bigger town. Drove down to a park with a lake and river near the ocean. Tried some fishing, but still no luck catching. Wind was cranking in the afternoon. After fishing we took a nice walk along the beach path.
Drove back to the same beach campsite on aru aru road and made a dinner for 2.
Woke up today to lighter winds and increasing swell, so we r gonna drive back over to oakura to check out that action for some surfing around high tide.
