Hawaii - Day 9 [Surfing]
Very cool. I got my lessons today. Sufring was so fun, I got up on my first try. I am sure it helped that I had this big foam board, but it was still a lot of fun. I went for 2 hours. I don’t think I could have made it another minute more. Talk about tiring. Paddeling out really takes a toll on you. I would be so tired when I got out there and then a wave would be coming and the instructor would be like, “get ready here comes another wave”. Oh man, here we go again. It was a lot of fun though.
Later in the day we went back to The Place of Refuge. Probably the coolest time we’ve been here. We were snorkeling with a school of 15 - 20 dolphins. It was crazy! They would be swimming right by us then dive down probbaly a 100 feet or so. You could see them all swimming around down there and then when they would come up for air it would look like they were coming right at you. Kind of scary, but amazing.
What an awesome day.
