Monday was FLAT. So
headed into town on the metro. Got some
coffee in Urgagui and had a wander around Centro.
Tuesday was also FLAT, but opted to spend the day in Zona
Sul which is quite easy to do. This
included playing beach football on Ipanema until the sun got the better of me
and working out on the many pull up bars to get stronger (I hope). For an alternative sunset I headed to Lagoa
where they were clearing out dead fish (yum).
Sunset not too bad.
Wednesday waves. All
in the convenience of a wander over.
Sadly also crowded with Brazilians and not the best. But got in 2 sessions of shortish rides. Finished the day with a big feijoida.
Today (Thursday that is) there were waves again but much smaller and
dying. So opted for a bit of extra size
and made the close to 2 hour bus journey
(each way down to recreio). Got a few
waves in- but the water was pretty gross (s*** and plastic). By
about lunch the wind picked right up and the swell was dropping.
Managed to get one of the exectuivo busses back (they are
more expensive but well worth- unlike other public buses the seats are comfortable,
you don’t feel like you are about to be killed by dodgy driving and you have
personal space. Paranoid about surfing
in contacts in the filth I found myself taking them about on the bus journey
home. Fortunately when I arrived home
Maria had made some pretty nice late lunch and I lazed the afternoon away doing
nothing particularly useful.
