Normally you would be over the moon if someone offered to pay you to go to Dunsborough for a week, put you up in a fancy holiday unit with plasma TV and Foxtel and fed you dinner from a fancy resturant. But its Leavers Weeks (don't call them schoolies) so the shine is a little tainted.
Arrived Monday and finished at midnight. Tuesday I was up bright and early and headed for Yalls. The swell was small and the wind picking up so I went to Shallows. The wind was swinging and was a howling northerly sideshore and the tide was super low. What looked alright at the lookout was just a line of closeouts breaking on a wierd bank rather than reef.
Wednesday - onshore howlers. Thrusday - see Wednesday. Today has more south in the wind. It rained last night and is freezing cold now but the wind change has made Inji and Smiths surfable. Tide is still low, Smiths is packed and Inji is only just breaking. Needless to say it was back to the room via Yahoo surfboards for a chin wag with Mark Ogram and Hillzeez, to watch the cricket on the plasma.
Last night tonight. So glad it is only for a week !
