Surfing

I learned to surf today! It was pretty tough, but I was actually able to stand up on the board for a bit.  They were only baby waves, but I'm okay with it :)  We took 90 minute lessons at Bondi beach after they explained all about how boards are made, what different types of fins there are, etc.  It as actually pretty cool!  Then they took us into the water and had us ride waves in on our stomachs, and then transitioned to standing.  It wasn't scary at all; the boards were so big and the waves were so calm that you rarely wiped out and if you did it was pretty minor.  I'm exhausted and sunburnt, but overall it was a great day!
