Well, all i can really say is I survived! A 4 day surf camp, easy i thought, no worries mate! God I was wrong. My poor body is battered and bruised, my liver is eroded due to the alcohol consumption...BUT...I LOVED IT!!!!

Booked myself on the 4 day Sydney to Byron Bay surf camp, I must say, with a few nerves. However it was the best 4 days of my trip so far! We surfed 4 hours every day, well everyone else did , i sent most of the time being dumped of my surf board into the water. I did manage to stand up by the 4th day, about 3 days behind the others, but hey i did it! The sangria flowed in the evenings in the cabins and we partied with the surf instructors. They were great fun, typical bronzed surf gods (i was hard ladies).

I don't think I will be taking surfing up as a hobby, i think body boarding is my thing (you don't have to stand up), but I loved being in the ocean and had the time of my life!!

Hi Helen! Glad to hear you had lots of fun surfing, or should that be flirting with surf dudes and drinking Sangria... sounds more like the Maisey we know and love!

Hi Helen So it wasn't so easy afterall! your experience is about the same as mine, you think I can stand up no trouble, but then reality sets in and you spend a lot of time in the water, still never mind WE had a go. Glad to hear life is still one long holiday keep on going!! Love uncle D
