To be honest after two and half months of almost non stop movement I am shattered and have decided to stick around at the hotel all day today. I have a comfortable air conditioned room and fridge I stocked with beer so spend most of the day doing my best to empty it and sunbathing on my balcony to try and even out my truckers tan a wee bit (i.e. alway with my left side always away from the sun.) This is the view down to the tidal pool from there.
I am way behind on the blog at this point, but didn’t have much enthusiasm for it and need a day off everything. (This is written well after the events.) After baking for several hours I go down to the tidal pool which floods and drains with each tide. I take the GoPro down and chase fish around for an hour to cool off.
The hotel is very quiet because it is low season, but has a rich history of being visited by the great and the good because of its location next to the famous cliff divers (more on that to follow).
The La Perla restaurant there has a wall which they ask the celebrities to sign when they visit. The picture above shows Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner.
Big Clint is in the middle of this one.
My surfing connection is made because Gary Busey who starred in both Big Wednesday and Point Break has also been here.
I am not sure if they will ever carve my own graffiti into the woodwork like they have one with the stars thougn
