While you were sleeping…..

One of the best things about living in Sydney is the mornings. The sunrise was a glorious gold this morning, peeling off the horizon towards Manly Beach from around 5.50am. Living one street back from the strand means I can get up and go for a quick surf before heading in to the Irish Echo in the mornings. Catching a sunrise surf is possibly the best way to start the day, and I love it. That is, if I can wake myself up.

If I can’t, (like this morning, still aching from kickboxing the day before) the good folks from aquabumps.com in Bondi show me what I missed with a mid-afternoon mail containing pics like this and a detailed report on the surf that was. And the guilt sets in.

The sun pouring through the shutters nearly got me out this morning.

Nearly. No waves now for several days.

When it’s good, though, it’s very good.

Better waves than I am a surfer.
