Sunrise and Surf

The day we arrived in Australia we were in desperate need of sleep, so many of us crashed at 7 or 8pm. I decided to take advantage of this fact and set my alarm for 5:45am the next morning. An eastern ocean sunrise is one of the only reasons I would ever willingly do this.



In the distance here you can see Lennox Point, one of the best surfing spots in the world. Of the many water fowl we have spotted in the last few days, these pelicans are one of the few I recognize.






With a landscape like this, we just had to get in the water. But because its winter, the water is still very cold. So, later in the week, we bought used wetsuits and went boogie boarding.

This is me and my buddy Jackie in our swanky new suits.
