Postcards from France : 230907

Bon Bon Jurno,

I gave in to the girls request so it is only fair I deliver for the boys too . . enjoy.

Yesterday was a long day, 8 hours worth of surfing. Finished Round 1 & started Round 2. Beach was packed and the French sure are some of the most non-brain using people I have encountered.

Is it not logical if you walk in front of a 600mm and stop in front of the 600mm lens, turn around see the photographer giving you the look of death you would move. NOT these people, no, this folk look at you turn around and carry on standing in your way. Then proceed to look back to see the look of death turning into a flaming inferno of rage yet still not think to carry and carry on standing in the way. I had to go stand on wobbly mobi-unit to get a clear view.

Fanning was the standout yesterday putting the rest of his heat in a combo situes within 10 minutes. Andy went over the falls big time and Slater had no porblem with the pounding shore break.

Apart from the stubborn people there were those who were very nice too, these are 3 fine examples.

Toodaloo
