Lets start off a holiday thread....

Just had a nice two weeks off. Very lucky. Started off with some weird weather in the east which made for some fun shots out the front of home as the chick dropped the net out



We also had some decent swell for the first time in a long time



It was then time to head West for a mates 40th and wedding. We spent the first day on a bus with 45 people sampling the good stuff





We stayed in a lovely spot - this was the backyard



and saw lots of caves



and trees



and even more trees



we loved the sunsets



and the stingrays



and snakes



and of course we loved the ocean colours





and rugged coastline



But mostly I just loved the waves







And despite that I did a Chrispy and fin chopped my leg towards the end of the trip (this shot is taken 5 days later and healing nicely)



we had a great time over West. Its a great spot for a holiday if you get the chance fellas!! I can not wait to get back.

Good stuff

I was having a cracker of a surf until the fin chop and then I thought of you!!! Lucky it wasn't too bad - I had a wedding to attend in 2 hrs so after hobbling back to the carpark from lefties a mates wife got hold of her friend and she stitched me up in the lounge. Nothing like some good old fashioned backyard surgery to avoid hospital queues and make the wedding on time! She even let me drink a few beers whilst she stitched me up.

Oh that one

yeah that photo makes it look a little better than it really was to be fair. The waves slightly south were much better.
