Watching Surfers Risk Their Necks

They were loving it. They looked cool and all that, til you took a picture of them getting splashed by a wave, then you realised they were actually shaking like girls.

I wasn't really watching them do their real surfing til later, when I did see one guy riding through the curl of the wave - which was actually pretty cool.

After we finished at the Heads we went in search of coffee. Which we found around mid-day or so it seemed until I looked at my clock and found it was actually 7.30 in the morning.

We scouted up and down the Gold Coast for a while looking for likely looking rocky outcrops for future trips before heading inland for Murwillumbah for more coffee - after failing to find any in Tweed Heads; don't they understand cafe culture in New South Wales?

Thence up to the Natural Bridge to see it's post-rain-period transendence. Which was nice.
