Surf’s up folks! And as a tribute to October being the surfing month, I will be sharing with you my surfing adventures which started only last summer. Watch how better I got at this sport. I mean now, I could already stand up the freakin’ surfboard! I can already paddle but I have yet to learn how to catch a wave on my own. And most importantly, I’m no longer afraid of huge waves! They’re actually a lot more fun than the calm waters of various seas I’ve snorkelled in my lifetime. Anyway, here’s the first segment of my surfing adventures… Enjoy!

First Time Surfer Dudes and Dudettes
It seems like Peter and I are being continuously blessed with such amazing friends and we just can’t let the season sizzle without enjoying their company. So one weekend, we decided to try a different interest and that is to surf.
Our Ten-Year Old Baby!!!
So early dawn (around 2am), we braved the long road ahead of us. Good thing Vangie invited us for an early breakfast at their mansion in Pampanga. There, we met a 10 year old kid that could have been my son with Peter. He sooo looks like us!!! I cried myself with tears of joy & awe at the sight of that cute cuddly kid!!!
I can do this!!!
Anyways, after 2 hours of breakfast and laughter, we headed to La Union. And my God! The waves were pretty huge! Nevertheless, since we were there and have nothing better else to do, we tried surfing, for two hours. It was the scariest yet most exhilarating thing I’ve ever done in my entire life!!! Peter got so addicted that he wanted to go there every weekend (yeah, right!).
Ate Rose, Vina, Odhe, Me, Cecille
Vina, Rose and Vangie just stayed by the beach and played with the waves while Odhe, Peter, Cecille & I braved the fierce waters. We almost drowned but it was worth it! We even became friends with our surfer instructors - Jericho & Joey.
