Day 15 (Surfing attempt)

Well we woke up early this morning and were setup with a surfing lesson at 9:45, pretty pumped with this and ready to go. The company the hotel contracts with to provide these canceled them because of the surf and rips, well since we were only going to be here for today we sought out a surf instructor with less concern for his liability insurance. Probably not the best idea in hindsight but still lots of fun. I was never able to get beyond my one knee up and was being knocked around like I was in a washing machine. The instructor kept telling Rick and I that as soon as our time was up, he was coming back because the waves were "calling him", that should have been another clear warning, but we ignored that as well. Rather than trying to describe the surf, just look at this video.








After coming back and rinsing off the sand, we went back into town to see what was going on, busy again, we just went to grab some lunch and some Hahn SuperDry (watch this video!!). Very chilled day, we're getting ready to go out for the evening and tonight the self proclaimed "Party Bar" Cheeky Monkey's is open, look out Byron Bay backpackers, US is in the house!!
