Since she was out visiting for a few days I splurged and upgraded my housing to an ocean front condo. It was pretty sweet, I must admit. And since it is the off-season for travel I got a great deal on it -- paid less than I have for a normal hotel room in other places. So, picture this - 9th floor of a high-rise, 2 ocean front "decks", plus one side deck with ocean views.
The decks were very small, ridiculous small actually -- think less than a foot deep, but the ceiling to floor sliding glass doors gave amazing views of the pacific ocean.
You could watch the surfers, the sun-bathers, the boogie-boarders, etc. And one of the mornings was really windy so I woke up to views of para-sailors. Now that looked awesome! Surfing, smurfing...I want to learn para-sailing instead. Except I don't know how they didn't kill each other. There were a dozen out there at one point and yet somehow they managed to zig and zag and turn back and forth and not run into themselves. Seems complicated but must be a huge thrill. They could go with the surf, or against it and leap into the air for seconds at a time....crazy fun.
