Surfin' U.S.A

"If everybody had an ocean. Across the U. S. A. Then everybody'd be surfin' like Californi-a. You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
huarachi sandals too. A bushy bushy blonde hairdo. Surfin' U. S. A. Everybody's gone surfin' Surfin' U.S. A." -Beach Boys

Them Beach Boys sure had it right. I now have an ocean and now I'm surfin' U.S.A. Yep, that's right. Last Saturday I went surfing, like real surfing, not body surfing, in Kennebunk, ME. UNE had an opportunity for students to get free surf lesson. They even rented wet suits for us! The lesson was only 30 minutes because there was ten kids and only three instructors and not enough board, so we broke into two groups. It still was soooooooo much fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those are pictures from my surf outing! Just kidding! :D NO way could I ride those waves. The ones I rode were two to three footers that had already broke (We were just riding the white turbulent water, if that makes sense. lol). And in actuality I actually rode two waves. The first one a "rode" I stood for like two seconds and then promptly fell off, which was better than all my previous trys. On my first handful of time I fell off my board before I could even stand up. Luckily for me I like dunkings.:D Technically, my very first time I just laid on my surf board the whole way in because my instructor fell under a wave and couldn't tell me when to stand. lol. Even then it was so much fun!!!! On my final try, I saw a wave turned my board around (with the help of the instructor). Then I took off paddling and FINALLY stood up, didn't fall off, and rode the wave!!!!! WHOOHOOOOO!!!!!

I LOVE SURFIN' U.S.A. just like the Beach Boys. Surfs boards just glide through the water. It is such an amazing experience. If you ever have the chance to go surfing, definitely do it!!!
