Postcards from France - Les Estagnots : 270908


Bonjeur,

It is time to bid farewell to France for another year, maybe more who knows.

Started with a Hot Rock ala French Style, it was fantastic apart from the sauce that looked good but tasted not so good. It was Tar Tar Sauce. Who has fish sauce with steak? The BBQ mixed with the Cheese sauce made up for the poor French palette.

I did say there is always an A$$hole everywhere in the world & always two in France. Well yesterday on a fun surf Kirstin had a run-in/paddle-in with one particular small penis syndrome ASP Europe photographer who decided to drop in on anyone & everyone with the excuse that this is his country & he can do what he likes. Try your leash pulling and water splashing frog antics in Africa Mr. Poenoet and see where it gets you. I however surfed a quieter peak up the beach & had fun on the little biscuit of a board I borrowed.

This is the Hossegor town square with a giant wave mural splashed on the side of a flats building. They had a Tony Hawk skate demo here, I missed it because parking was like finding a Dodo bird in the Arctic. It also played home to the main event site which saw absolutely no action what so ever, which is a pity because it was a rather nice one at that.

Down to Mundaka today with a start only looking set for Wednesday. At least Round 2 has been abandoned, unlike Mundaka.

Until tomorrow . . Oh yes this was to make up for yesterday, someone ship me a proper cuppa tea please.
