Autumn Surf

Well, the surf was definately big yeaterday, 5 or 6 feet at times. I took my body board to Gwithian. There where quite a few surfers in the sea. A film crew where on the beach, filming a scene from a movie or TV series. They had a archway and 2 horses with brides on them. I can only think that all of the surfers would have got in their way. Maybe they can remove the surfers digitally in post production. The waves where big, and I got pounded a few times. I like it when the waves are so big that after they have broken there is nothing but white water everywhere. Then, slowly peoples heads start to appear, and some large bits of seaweed. The water wasn't as cold as I had expected. I am still using my cheap Sola wetsuit. It is proving fine. As winter is nearly on us I will try my house mate Jess's winter wetsuit to see if I can stand surfing in the winter. I still have a big urge to buy a camper van. My car is slowly dying, and I'd love a camper, to drive it down the western European coast to Portugal this Winter. I don't think I am being very pratical, but I took the opportunity to check out the campers in the car park at Gwithian last night.
