A surfer’s paradise

The conditions have been the same the last couple days, so we have taken advantage with surfing every day. Wake up, coffee and breakfast, wax the boards, walk to the beach, surf for a few hours, walk back to the house, make lunch with at least one ice cold cerveza, siesta nap or reading, walk around town or down the beach, make a drink and head to the beach for sunset, make dinner or go out to a restaurant, and finally sleepy time.

Cool to see everyone gather on the beach for sunset with a bunch of peeps in the water surfing since the winds usually switch back offshore near sunset. Planning on a beach campfire sometime soon.

Cindy is gonna be the color of a local before we leave, which will lead well into our caribbean sailing trip next month. I’m holding out well with no sunburn yet by fully utilizing the surf hat, sunscreen and long sleeve rash guard.

Been trying to cook at home for most meals, but eat out at nearby restaurants occasionally. Had some awesome ceviche the other night at Pacifico Azul.

I got up a bit earlier today to try out a sunrise surf session at 6. Had some great rides in the second hour and then Cindy came down around 8 and the winds cooperated for a couple more hours of glassy 3-4 foot rides. Camera man from surfing nosara was in our area, so hoping they took some photos of us. Didn’t see any on their Facebook page, guess we haven’t achieved sufficient surfing skills yet… Will head over to their shop later in the week and see if they took any photos of us.

Checked into some fishing trips yesterday and planning to head out on Friday. Hopefully stock the fridge with Mahi or snapper!

Noticed quite a few New Yorkers in this area, thinking maybe cause JetBlue flies direct from JFK to Liberia which is the closest airport here.

Cindy’s birthday tomorrow!
