About 11 a.m., my son and I grumbled and thought of excuses why we shouldn't drive to the Pier and freeze in the water, but we both needed the wake-up.
Water temp 63 degrees. Took a while to get used to it--10 minutes, I'd say. Lots of surfers: 35 on the south side.
The day here was glorious. Good crowd on the beach hanging out for this time of year. Parking lot full.
The water was almost glassy, very flat, waves decent, nice shape. Too bad we don't have an angle to the waves here--a stronger left or right angle. Mostly beach break--no angle. I'm not criticizing, just describing.
Such an awakening feeling for the brain is 20 minutes goofing off in cold salt water. But I do need to get the zipper fixed on my good wet suit.
