flowers and surf

I'm not gonna lie this photo of my surf instructors is RIDICULOUS!

Today I graduated to a slightly smaller board and larger waves, a bit intimidating I got beat up a little. I need to practice a quicker jump up. I catch the wave freak a little due to the speed and then spend too much time calculating my balance when all I should be doing is popping up. Mostly though I was just thinking, my brother would love this! After surf and ceviche I went to the plant market and loaded the cab full, my apartment is starting to feel a bit more like home.

I've also included a photo of the Urban Cafe, it's in this round about very near my apartment. I walk there in the evenings to study spanish. I spend much of the time looking at and listening to peruvians and imagining myself one day communicating easily with them, for know I feel proud when the waiter brings me what I thought I ordered. For those Northfield readers, you'll realize little has changed since el tequila =)
