Sun already in his majestic pose, a quick look at the ocean, needless to say, Neptune will be sending some more precious blue and white presents...
Car loaded with all the required equipment: board, sunscreen, towel, drinking water ( yes guys, down here you better watch out for this) and the desire of exploring the most remote and isolated area of Los Cabos.
Lying ahead, one hour and half of different maintained level of dirt roads. The landscape, arid, dry, hostile to humans, but arguably beautiful in its own and unique way.
Driving myself focused on the bumpy and treacherous road, a couple of radio stations make some company. The topics vary from some medical treatments, to some businesses oriented to entertain the hordes of tourist in this piece of land (mostly the neighbours across the Río Grande), and some uninteristing issues.
Along the journey, many of the native fauna came out to greet me: blue neck lizards, everywhere, as if they were guards taking notes of the "alien visitors"; vultures, patrolling the bright blue sky. And at this point, I have to share an image that mesmerized me and pulled the imagination trigger: a large vulture posing on top of a massive cactus, waiting, as in old Western film, for a merciless and ruthless sun to accomplish its job: make you bend your knees to the dusty ground and pray...
Desert hares, hopping carelessly; a dingo type wild dog; and a decent size snake. On the ocean side, a whole bunch of crabs run back and forth playfully; and my beloved pelicans in its coast guards rol, patrolling all over...
In regards to the landscape, rugged coast, combining secluded and entirely human free beaches. And the colours!! That wise saying: "a picture is worth thousand words" Wasn`t it like that?
The propeller, once again, the endless search for wave. And speaking about the devil, I should start narrating my adventures (more often than not misadventures) but we`ll leave that for another occasion, raincheck!! (that reminds me that I`m still waiting for the one I had been promised).
Have a good night!!

Baja California Sur
It`s been a little while since last time I put some of my travelling experiences and thoughts all together. As time seems to be precious and priceless, I will no longer keep you out of this magical trip am in.
Again, 14 days, each of them different in regards to expectations, actions and moods.
So far, half way through, my best friends and fellow travelers back in the Sunshine State ( you`re missed and loved guys). We had shared quite a few tacos,some tequilas and tons of unforgettable memories alongside good laughs (The Arch boat, the pretty visitors, the extremely mellow and laid back Guy from Flora del Mar and many others...)
Desertic and, apparently, barren lands, a mighty Pacific Ocean and huge cacti as the background for this new chapter.
Senses back to life: spicy tastes;salty lips after another amazing surfing session in Los Cerritos; the awareness of sharing the same air and dirt roads with living creatures (spiders, "cucas", mice, pellicans, sea lions, unknown different types of fish...)
Perhaps tomorrow, or the following one, I`ll get deep in details and particular stories.
In the meantime, be yourselves as any other way will lead to soulless and empty paths...
Love and surfing.

Late in the evening racing to the streets...
Whilst skating every night has become an extension of myself, I came up with the idea of filming it.
I am pretty sure, you'll forgive my lack of professionalism, as my will is as good yours.
Needless to say, it all obeys to a non existent plan (less thinking more feeling!) that I proudly share with you all...I'm on plane, I can't complain!
Come as you are
Have a good night!

St. Patrick's Day in the Sunshine State
Orange, white and green, these make the colours of the Irish flag, waving through palm trees with tons of Green people drinking and cheering to honour whatever they want to...
As I said once, the Captain is a rough player, and you just can't play him as a nobody. Unexpected gatherings, lost in the middle of that mankind, some looks, laughter, a few more drinks, desires and a deep unsettling sleep...

Apparently, everything in its right place...
A couple of overwhelming thoughts dictating what to do...Should I check the beach again? Obviously, I had to, longskate, the bridge,some music, quite a few hardcore surfers hanging around, empty mighty waves closing out with no mercy...Nobody is out there, and the wind blows insanely...And quite sharky too!!!
No surfing regardless of Erika, and no cup of tea in the eve..What a Sunday!!
Good night!

And the wind keeps on blowing...
Sometimes, there is great need for saying something to someone. In other occasions, nothing is left to be said. Whatever the case may be, the sense of loosing floats around, however, the silver grin remains.
Good night.
Good night.
