not such a sunny day

but at least there was swell
its been three weeks of no waves and the first swell that arrived was a welcome sight indeed

so this blog has been run from a very nice screen most of the time , recently i realized making updates in seedy internet cafes that others dont see it as i do , images clipped , over contrast or blown , unfortunately there is not much i can do other than urge you to upgrade your monitor ,haha , but that is up to u , what i can do is start loading the images smaller , not much , just enough so the standard monitor doesnt clip it , thisisforthepeople .

The well of story's have dried up, the messenger has been shot and there is no way of resuscitation, whatever will happen, disease is spreading faster than vaccines are developed and yet there is hope, hope of survival, hope for miracles, hope for saviours, some dead others alive.
Storms will keep brewing none the less, and those souls who are at the right place at the right time, they will smile radiant white smiles while others look on.
What thoughts course through there minds, thoughts of stoke, thoughts of jealousy, thoughts of......fuck that is a sweet barrel?

end

this is some of the waves from the last day of our recent trip at a very cool wave

2 suits

Ok, so the water looked cold, icy cold that is

and Tiaan thought 2 suits is the way to go, hehehe

crossing borders

for me this is the sweetest part , just love crossing borders

Everything is fresh and new, even if it's just crossing a river that separates 2 countries,

the beer is sweeter, the coast is more desolate, the natives look different and

you find the most expensive town in the world, the prices where so ridiculous

i cant even utter it, steer clear of AUS, yes it is the name of a place.

Namibia, there aren't many towns and the ones that are there are miles apart,

just straight roads with a kink now and again.

here are some images from Namibia, unfortunately for you guys I wasn't too dedicated behind the lens on this trip, waves where pumping and i couldn't care less,

well to be honest that is why there arent that many action shots from the trip at all, oooops
