Well, today I officially got my first California sunburn! I went out to surf on this beautiful 70+ degree day with my husband. I first took out my little 6 foot board and after an hour of not catching any waves, realized that I was WAY too out of shape to ride it. :(
We swung back by the house where I picked up my longboard along with some suncreen, then headed back out. I had, what I like to call, a "mommy" moment, and completely forgot to actually PUT the sunscreen on. At least I caught a ton of waves this time! I am too embarassed to take a picture, so just imagine that I have a light sunburn on my face and neck and a lovely pale line across my neck from where my wetsuit starts. Of course it's too warm to cover it up with a turtleneck.
Well, since I don't have a photo to show you, I'll share a few shots that I took yesterday during a big swell. (no, I do NOT surf gianormous waves like this! these guys are just plain crazy)
