Alysha, Larry and I hadn't tried surfing yet, and I was about to leave for Fiji in 2 days. So, we all looked online and booked our surf lesson with Get Wet Surf School for Nov. 19th.
The van came and picked us up the next morning and drove us to the Spit where the lesson would take place. They even let Mom come along to watch and take pictures!
We got to the Spit and they suited us up in wet-suit tops, and we wore our bathing suit bottoms. We paired up to carry our long-arse boards to the beach from the parking lot. I paired up with a nice girl from Adelaide here on vacation.
We posed for some pictures prior to the beach:
In the van!
LarBear pumped!
SUIT UP
Here we go!
So we headed to the beach, where the instructors had us put our boards on the beach and practice standing up. It was really easy on the sand, let me tell you! We were so pumped to get in the water.. it wasn't a sunny day, but it was still hot. Perfect last day to surf. Here are the beach pics:
Excitement!
Pay attention!
We can do it!
Look Ma! I can surf!
Alright, here are pictures the instructors took of Larry, Lysh and myself surfing.. they are not flattering in the least, but frankly, I surfed in Australia.. I can look like that. :P Weeeee!!!
Water got up my nose.. a LOT!
Hurro?? hahahaha
Tandem Surfing with my Lysh!!!
CHEAH!!! Hangin' looooose!
Well, there you have it. We did really well for our first time getting up on the board numerous times. It was exhausting though! No wonder those surfers have awesome bodies!!! hahaha Anyway, we loved it and it was worth every penny!
