Santos Day 4

Showing off my skills
Surfing!!!


Still not wanting to leave the beach without surfing, I started asking around online for anybody who could help me find a surf board. I got wind of another surfing school that also gave free lessons that was at a different part of the beach. Adriel and I checked out of our hotel and decided to leave our stuff at the chapel in Santos. Unfortunately, the place was empty and we had to keep hauling our stuff with us. 
We stopped to eat lunch and then headed to the see if the school existed.  Sure enough, it did. It was closed till 3 and while we waited for the people to return, we chatted with some life guards. One of the guards was very nice and offered to talk to the manager to get us in and find a place to leave our bags. When the managers came we signed up for the class. We were only in the beginner’s course but they provided everything from a shirt to a board; plus, our instructor was pretty cute. They didn’t let us hit the big waves because we had to get the basics down first, but it was still such a blast and I was able to fulfill my dream.
