went out and mitch invited me to go surfing so i grabbed a wet suit that he had and waited while he finished his meeting. we got down to the beach, they went out to the big surf he sent me to another break where it was a little lighter. i got down and into the water and it was cold. i wasn't expecting that at all, to top that off the rip tide was really strong. i'd paddle out into a spot to catch a wave and if i didn't keep paddling i was 100 yards away in a few seconds. never caught a wave.

i expected to sleep really good and to be sore from all the paddling, neither became the case. saturday evening i met this guy tim from canada who had spent two years working on catalina at micheal cousoes camp. we hung out and he took me down to the central part of town. got an empanada and grabbed some food at the market.
