RE: Surf Stoke: Praia Do Norte | Nazaré Portugal

in #travel8 years ago

You are looking great Heidi! I really want to take surf lessons. Last time I surfed I got owned my mother nature. My friend gave me a brief description of how to pop up on the surf board. Little did I know a n00b like me shouldn't have been out in the water when there was a tropical depression making the waves real big. I worked real hard to get out there with all the real surfers. The first wave I caught I popped up and just got thrown like a 5 pound rag doll and then put in the spin cycle for a scary amount of time. When I came up the surf board I just rented was snapped in half. The next day I almost got swept out to sea on a kayak and almost drownd. I was a slow learner but now I know that mother nature is the boss.
