It was a rather lax morning. We still woke up at day break but decided to not go to Lobitos. As Trip says, “It has to get small before it gets really big”. Today was that day. Tomorrow is going to be a building day as we are expecting a pretty great swell to roll in some time tomorrow. I spent the morning by the pool getting some work done. Some of the clients read, hung-out at the beach or went for a Standup. I took a few pictures and the next thing I knew it was time for lunch.
Right after lunch we headed off for a down winder. We cruised 8 km upwind from the resort. The whole crew rigged up on a beach off the main road. It was WINY! Just off in the distance were probably 100 fishing boats and more birds than you could count. The guys and gals cruised downwind and fast. Franko, the guide and I, followed them on land trying to get some shots. We finally making it back after stopping at about 4 locations to shoot. Everyone had an amazing time on the downwinder.
I ran out of the truck and headed straight to the beach where I found Jason‘s kite still rigged. I headed out for a very fun hour-long session in the knee high waves. Some of the crew did a long yoga session. Then it was relaxing and dinner then off to bed.
