Another five days have past. Semana Santa is over and the town has thinned out. The surf has been epic as usual. I did some solo sessions at Casitas, which every morning has been light offshore winds, beautiful A frames and few people in the water. Andy, Laura and I have been surfing south end of Tamarindo quite a bit as it is better for learners but I have been finding some nice sections to try to get a little air. Yesterday we took a shuttle to Avellanas. It was low tide and the set waves were few and far between. It would mostly be a heavy wave that would slam shut once it hit the sandbar. Casitas is turning out be my favorite wave in the area so far, but I have to branch out to other spots over the next week.
This mornings session was missed due to our latest outing. In bed at midnight is unheard of as most nights we are exhausted by 9pm. Laura and I are training for Hong Kong and did some karaoke at Sharky's. The guaro, and buckets of beers helped the whole group perform. The ladies did their rendition of Beyonce's "All the Single Ladies" and Andy and I belted out a classic "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. Singing is no ones forte in the group.
Nights before that have been spent at Witches Rock for Happy Hour. Pints for 1.25$ and some killer wings which are slowly becoming a must have. Saturday had an awesome live band of ex-pats doing cover songs and the Monday night we went for Jo's arrival and chowed more wings and beers. We went to Taco Stop last night for Taco Tuesday. I would recommend just getting a burrito over the tacos based on bang per buck.
Most days now have been lazing around the pool and strolling around town. Surf during the day has been pretty bush due to the onshore. We are going to session the river mouth at low tide today and have a pretty low key night.
