Wow, we're almost pro surfers!! Lol, well hardly, but we gave it a fair go!!! We arrived at Spot X surf camp and launched straight into a theory lesson on how to surf! Then we got kitted out with wetsuits and surf boards before heading down to the beach for a practical lesson on the sand before getting in the water. When we finally got into the water we spent about 2 hours in there being bashed about by the waves and having great fun attempting to catch them! We got out around 7pm looking like drowned rats and feeling very excited that we'd got to a kneeling postion!! Then after a well deserved shower we sat around a fire and had a delicious BBQ before playing a game, where the losing team had to do the washing up (good thing we didn't lose!!) The next morning we were up at 6.30am and getting back into our wetsuits for another 2 hour surf lesson!! We started with a very strenuous warm up (running along the beach in huge wetsuits in the Australian sun really isn't necessary!!), and so were glad to get into the cold sea!! This time we managed to stand up once - but then fell straight in!! We left surf camp felling absolutely exhausted!! We're covered from head to toe in bruises and we've pulled muscles we didn't even know we had, but it was so much fun!!
