Dominican Republic Day 1


The view from my patio doors!

Day One has seen two surfs - 2-3ft and onshore, but super fun. As soon as we all paddle out (7 girls and one photog) the local boys come out of the woodwork! They're all great surfers and fairly friendly.

The girls on this trip are Gwen Spurlock, Tassy Swallow, Robyn Davies, Tahlia Britton, Zoe Sheath and Kathleen Spears, plus me (Kat) filming and writing and Alex Williams, token male and photographer. We're here for two weeks filming and shooting for the mag and the website.

We've got a local surfer guy (Alex knows through a mate in Barbados) coming to tell us all about the best spots, and there's swell and sunshine forecast for tomorrow (and no wind!) From the pictures tacked up on the local surf shack/shop/school (under the swaying palm trees by the soft sandy beach!) we can see it barrels its nuts off under the right conditions, and the girls are all well up for it.

So the plan is another 7am boardies surf, watching the sunrise, then brekkie on our amazing terraces (see pic!) then exploring in our posh minivan.

Paradise.
