Australia Surf Lessons in Paradise

355

 Surfers Paradise in Australia is a very beautiful place.  the government keeps it clean, safe, and user friendly for surfers.  waves in front, and happy people everywhere.   i walked up and down the main beach for 3 days straight.  everyday was onshore, cold, and a lot of jellyfish on the beach.  as much as i was desperate for a surf, it just wasn’t too inviting.   so i just sat on the beach and watched surf lessons all day.  i wanted to see how they did it in Australia. i thought they were going to paddle out to the outside, but instead, they just walked in knee deep water and surfed right there.  i watched the instructor push his first student into his first wave.   then the second student gets pushed in.   she stood up!  yeah, welcome to the surfing world!  then after 3 seconds, the wave was done.  then i thought to myself, “some of my students probably have no idea how lucky they are to surf in Hawaii.  long rides, warm water, and no jellyfish.”    so yeah, i still feel that the best place in the world to learn how to surf in right here in Hawaii!   lucky us…
