WestCoastBestCoast: Day 9

Day 9
Best day yet! And probably pretty hard to beat. We woke up at our usual 8:00 rising time, had breakfast, and piled into the pickup with Leigh and Dave (after spending lots of time figuring out how to best tie down my surfboard with butcher string) for a surf day at HB! We met Surfer Drew at the beach and he, Leigh & I surfed. Obviously I got up on my first wave and then fell every single other time except once. But I must say that me & Leigh's (improper grammar) nosediving skills score a 10 out of 10! After freezing our faces, toes & hands off, getting eaten by waves, getting hit in the head by my board and filling my sinuses with salt water, we decided we'd had enough. We sat on the beach for a bit while Leigh took some sweet snaps with Dave's camera, bid farewell to Surfer Drew and then began the fun task of surfboard bag arrangement in the trunk! My snot rockets were an endless source of entertainment as the girls watched salt water drip continuously and uncontrollably from my nose as i leaned over to tie down the surf bag.

It was then time for the best time of the day. HSS Chai Latte & Apple Muffin time! Leigh and I got chai lattes, I was the only one that got a muffin (warmed), we visited with Mark and saw pictures of his adorable little baby, and I was crushed to find out that they didnt have any HB hoodies in size small. (Mine is M.I.A.)

After a fabulous traffic free drive (thanks to Dave's iphone) we made it back to the house in time to go for a little afternoon hike (which was terribly tiring since we were already tired from surfing). After the hike we hung around and eventually got ready for dinner at the Dirty Heads concert. (In this meantime there was plenty more snot rocket action). We went to Urth Caffe for dinner, got salads and delicious coconut pie for dessert. We then made our way to the Roxy with perfect timing to see Dirty Heads. We talked to Surfer Drew, got stuck talking to several lose-bags, and then went home to rest up for our crazy long observatory hike tomorrow!!!
