Just a few photos from our (surfing) trip to the West

We had the most amazing trip over December and January to Western Australia and South Australia. For me it was a chance to surf places I was last at 25 years ago. The children and my partner got to see some of the most stunning ocean and beach landscapes in the world. We are so lucky.

Below are just a couple of surfing-related photos. While I did  score some awesome waves on the trip,  they are not really recorded here. Mostly these photos just show some warm and wonderful memories of the sea (and me and the children in it!)

















One of my favourite ever photos me surfing: relaxed and having a ball!














Early morning surf under the setting moon about 600 kms north of Perth














Tandem riding with Snake Girl - classic shot!














Miss Adventure and me cruising in the curl














When there was no surf we'd play with our new sea friends


Heading out for adventures at a place appropriately named 'Green Pools'














Our kitchen and dining room for seven weeks














Micro waves on Christmas Day (near Esperance, WA)


Miss Adventure's idea of the perfect place for a relaxing dip














Just after dawn walking into remote surf spot, South Western WA















When the swell was big around Margaret River I surfed this spot a lot. Huge, hollow and lots of fun
