the California

You know the feeling when you're so sick of day to day life and you think you might explode if yu don't get away? well that's how I felt right before this trip! Josh and I headed out to San Jose to visit some friends Jami and Layne... (sorry Jam, this post basically looks like yours- sorry, but what can you do?)


Look at these 2 Gnarly dudes getting ready to catch a wave... The funny thing is that it was about 43 degrees out side and the water was way cold, but these guys couldn't resist. They choose a spot that they thought was totally great for beginners. After an hour of attempts and no successes these 2 dudes swam back to shore totally wiped out and debriefed their experience. (The next day we went to church with Jam & Layne and a sufer in their ward was like "wow, you guys went there? That's some pretty Gnarly stuff... he also said that by going there they just increased their chance of shark attack by 10% I'm terrified of sharks and that's why I didn't want to go surfing in N. Cal. glad I didn't b/c with my luck I would have had a run in with a GREAT WHITE!!!)


There were lots of these street performers. This one was one of the most bestest... He would hide behind these bushes (yes, it looks like he would be totally conspicuous) and then he would jump out when someone was passing and scare them half to death!
