Continuing my quest for the treasure and following instructions given to me by anonymous letters we caught a bus to Bondi Beach. There I, the pirate, was to be challenged by the waves of the world’s most famous beach. The captain demanded that I took as many lessons as needed to stand on a board for more than 5 seconds to get the next clue.
We stayed 3 days at Bondi beach, in a suite in a hotel that overlooked the beach (The captain has really done well). The beach is majestic, clear blue/green water, white clean sand aaaand… 10.000 tourists. Surfing is actually not that difficult, after 10 tries I ride my first wave all the way to the shore and after 6 hours of lessons I catch a couple of ‘green waves’ and actually manage to ride the flank. Challenge won, clue received.

I rock! Me big bombastic surf-dude! Me billabong curlz rider, me quick silver tsunami master.
Well, not quite yet, but surfing is really cool and I hope to buy my board soon, to do some more.
