Sunday and 1m+ didn’t promise that much, but size was pretty nice for a mere 1m forecast. Possible to make turns and all. Not the cleanest, not the windiest. Classic conditions. The drive home was a mix of rain and dark clouds above us and sunny skies closing in from the west with sun going down. Which means rainbows and crazy colors.
Next even better forecast was promised for Tuesday. Even though the forecast was bigger, I was super surprised when the ferry didn’t work. Damn. There was absolutely no wind at the port. so I had to drive around to the other ferry, whole afternoon of driving instead of chilling on the island. The session was good, again maybe even bigger size than forecasted, nice walls, lot’s of wind… the walls got worse at least for me with low tide. But a 5h session nevertheless. Wind was supposed to drop around 13-14h, but when I got the the port at 16h again, the ferry was cancelled. It arrived half an hour later in an absolute pouring tropical style thunderstorm. After 15 minutes the rain stopped and we boarded the ferry. Yawning all the way home…
