8th January 2006

Hung over. CB, SP & CF chilled out for the day and didn't surf. Said our goodbyes to Logan, Mitch, Cindy, Scottie & his missus. Went to the swap meet and bought some quality tat; cheap t-shirts, license plates etc. Returned & DT went surfing with Debbie. Darrick Doerner passed DT in the line-up standing on a paddle board at Pua'ena point.

Swell picked up late on. DT surfed Alligators videoed by SP. DT good effort in double-overhead conditions. Tom Nellis (local shaper) was in the line-up along with Larry, our local Waimea legend. DT took some heavy ones, but then managed to get a great right all the way to the beach.

Went out for a meal with Debbie to Hale'iwa Joe's. Mai Tais & seafood - amazing grub! Debbie told us about when she treated Buzzy Trent in hospital, plus some of the other legends she'd encountered during her nursing career.

Top night, but still struggling from last night's festivities.
