“Sometimes you just need a Beach Day. ”
We break the long return journey to Santiago on the rather uninspiring PanAm with a relax surf-n-beach day in Chile's Surfers Paradise Pichilemu. (After receiving reports about us going further and further south, and afraid of all of a sudden receiving a postcard from Ushuaia, Rodrigo got quickly back to town! ;-)
Painfully recalling last year's I-can-stand-up-on-my-own surf attempts along the Basque coast - which miserably failed - this time Jorg wisely decides to take his first surf class... with (surprise!) much better results! While he is battling the Pacific waves, two and a half months far in our sabbatical, I finally find a relax moment to open one of the photography books I brought (and had expected to have long devoured by now!).
Though already after a couple of pages, a much more exciting living star fish passes the beach revue. Soon thereafter, Jorg manages to stand up on his surf board (a first!), a moment I cannot let pass by uncaptured! After all, maybe I should just continue shooting instinctively and read expert photography books when back at home? :)
You know that feeling?
“Now that my vacation is over, I need another one just to relax. ”
