Ha)  |
| I guess I've been here
long enough to stop gawking at everything (well, almost everything) and
now the pictures will start having more people in them and less "sights".
Mark and Komron live upstairs and own a coffee shop down at the Balboa
Pier (about 1 mile down the beach). Derek lives the next block over and
is some kind of financial wizard. Derek has lived on the peninsula his
entire life and Mark and Komron moved here last year from Texas. It's a
real melting pot and it's nice to have a little gang to hang out here with.
The Wedge is a famous bodysurfing spot down the street. Waves come in from
two angles and colide to make a perfect 20' tube !! Too scary for me but
fun to watch. Pictures don't do justice to size and power of waves but
it is simply awesome!! More picts on the way I'm sure.
