Yesterday 20th October 2008

Yesterday was a much better day than today.
At least there were a few waves, the sun was shining and the perfect offshores created the ultimate beach weather.

A south change rocked in last night bringing clouds, onshore winds and turning the waves into mush. 1ft dribbly mush.

Yesterday was a big day down at Bondi for two reasons, the inaugural Sculpture by the Sea has begun and the Annual Chloe Byron Memorial surfing comp. Chloe was a victim of the Bali bombings. She was the daughter of well known Bondi local Dave Byron (The guy in the red speedos and red mal who is always getting the set waves). Hundreds paddled out making a ring of remembrance for Chloe whose been sadly missed and features on the graffiti wall along the broadwalk.

Yesterday Bondi was packed. One of the biggest days of this year so far…cars with big mufflers everyone, barely a scrap of sand spare.

Forecast: Wind waves coming up tomorrow afternoon. Expect 4-5 foot but not so sure about quality. ::Uge
