Wipe Out......











We started our East coast tour on Sunday and the first stop was at Mojo surf camp in a tiny place (whoops forgot the name begins with an A - will fill in later). We got there late evening so just had time for dinner (Fajitas - yum) before sitting round the camp fire. It was a really nice relaxed evening and time for us to bond with our new bus which is a mixture of German, French, Italian and of course us girlies. The camp fire soon moved to the beach, which was stunning with all the stars and one of the instructors brought along his guitar, although apart from Oasis - Wonder wall, Im not sure he knew anymore - Graz we needed you.

We were woken up at 6.30 am (nice), to have breakfast and put on those very flattering wetsuits. Once we were all ready we headed down to the beach to let the fun begin. We all had a brilliant time and we all managed to stand up (well Jules almost did, that will serve her right for taking the mick out of Stacey and saying she would be laughing at her trying to surf- in your face Burnett!). We swallowed half the ocean between us but all had so much fun, there are a few wounds from it though. Katie's finger bent back and looks slightly swollen now, Debbie stubbed her toe and Jenny smacked the board in her face and now has a red mark, but hey ho all in the life of surfer chicks.

We have now made our way up the coast and are in a city called Brisbane, we haven't ventured out yet but i'm sure the stories will follow.

Lots of love from the Surf Dudettes xx

Ha ha haaaa! I loved that update! I think everyone thinks that surfing will be manageable but it sounds so hard! And everyone got beaten up by the sea too!
Deb, hope your toe is ok. Kate, how's the finger now? You won't have to go to A&E will you? Jen, have you got a black eye or just a bruise?
Can't wait to see some pictures!
Will send all an email shortly, have Monday morning blues...

Hi girls, England calling, here are the votes of the Chappel jury. We did not think it was possible for four girls to have so much fun and excitement without mum and dad. It just goes to show you! Much love to you all xxxx
