Hola everybody!  Waking up this morning to a little more wave than yesterday.  Sets were about chest high, the winds were nice offshores, and the water was just perfect!  Not to many surfers out today, making for lots of empty waves rolling through.  Check out the action from down on the beach.

How's this for a means of transportation to check the surf.  This guy ran his horse right down to the waters edge to get a good look at the waves.  All he needs is a board rack!

A couple local kids were out down the beach and they were ripping.  Maybe it has something to do with the waves being head high on them!

There's a decent right point break along the side of this rock.  Just don't get caught by a set in front of the rock!

Craig has been cruising around on his golf cart for a few days,  He had to give it up today and now he's riding his bicycle down for surf checks.  Not quite as fun huh Craig!

It's super nice to be one of three other surfers out in the water along a two mile stretch of beach.  Tony, steps away from fun on his soft-top.

We’ve got Lucha Libre Garcia here reporting from down here in San Juan del Sur.  The waves were kinda mushy at high tide but it was super fun.  Lots of people made it out and everybody had a good time.  It was running about waist to chest high on sets with nice offshore winds and the water was nice.  Check it out!!!

First at all we want to give a special shout out to the Dirty Sanchez, she’s back in the water and ready to crush the fish this year.  Still in good shape!

The tide got higher and higher, so the rocks were kinda hard to see.  A few people landed on the rocks, some of them were lucky and didn’t get hurt but some other ones were not that lucky.

Quesitos was not that lucky and went through the rocks.  Ouchhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

There were tons of cute girls on the beach this afternoon, so the night promises to be firing.  It is a shame that I can not go out and party.
