Day Six in Rincon. We woke up to dismal surf conditions (even by Rhode Island standards).
Not to worry, folks...there are plenty of diversions to keep us out of trouble. For the better part of today, we went all out Cousteau down at the local coral reef. Totally worth losing a day in the lineup!
The only downside was actually seeing what lies beneath us when we're out there on our boards...hell knows we've felt what lies beneath us...
Day Three in Rincon!
One of our highlights so far has been watching Puck break in his new Rusty. That poor little grommet has been staring at his new board all winter as it was propped up in a corner of the playroom taunting him to get out and do some of this...
Also, a BIG Spiderbyte shout out to our friend Teep for being our virtual Rincon tourguide. We've hit all of his suggested sweet spots, including the Rock Bottom which felt like home to our little Spicolli...
I promise to post some details and pics when we're back in chilly New England but for now I'm kinda swamped...between chilling my Medalla and surfing these perfect waves, I barely have time to apply sunscreen.
Hey Folks...we made it to our first destination, Rincon!
And let's just say getting here was an adventure all in itself. Mostly because when you opt for the value tickets, you can count on turning a 4 hour trip into an 18 hour one....
And the fun didn't stop there, as our good fortune extended long after the flight. Activities included the breakdown of our rental van (again, another value deal), an unsuccessful attempt to get the van fixed, and a search for a replacement vehicle in the height of tourist season.
Not to worry though, we rebounded quickly. We spent the next day checking out the local beach, and with the exception of having to surgically remove sea urchin barbs from the bottom of my own foot, it was a rousing success.
Please pass the Medalla!
