Surfin' in the Uuuooo Kay

Last weekend, Friday after work, Russ and I set off on a mammoth journey to north Devon for a surfing weekend for Russ' friend Rob's birthday. Just over 5hrs later we arrived in Woolacombe...


On the Saturday Russ took me for a drive around the area, which is famous for its beaches. This is where Russ spent his childhood holidays and hadn't been back since he was young.


It's beautiful down there! People very friendly, the scenery stunning and the beaches huge! It's so nice to have a break from London in a place like that! So relaxing! Despite the rubbish weather that weekend...


Later in the afternoon we all had a surfing lesson with an instuctor that provided a bit of eye candy! It was hilarious!! None of us could really surf - it was really a beginner's lesson! We were all trying desperately to get on our feet, some of us succeeding... Russ did well and I got on my feet for a moment but came stright back off! As frustrating as it was that we weren't all Kelly Slaters on our first try, we all had SO much fun!!! It was an excellent weekend!! Can't wait to do it again!!!
