Studio on Oxford Street.

This art studio (at least that's what I think it is) was really eye catching on Oxford street. I'm not sure what the concept is. The colours and fantasy feel really grabbed the eye. Amazing that a lot of people just dumbly walk past this stuff.

The bog at Green Park

This is the bog at Green Park Station. I stopped here for a poo. Had to jump the barrier and avoid a 50p payment. Could have weighed myself on this classic machine for 20p.








Farm Street Church

Was walking past this place on the way back to Waterloo. Was a bit of a hidden gem away from the busy streets. One guy was praying as I entered. Very peaceful.

Surfing Baleal again Trip to the airport and home

Up at 8am for a but of breakfast. Then filled in all the passenger locator rubbish. Hit the beach and had a decent surf. 

Saw an absolutely mint range rover on the way out. 


Back at the beach. This looks like an incredible place to park up. 


Beautiful long beach. 


Hire car


Ready to hit the surf.



Coffee, dropped the boards off

Decided we'd had enough surf and decided to check out and go for a road trip down south. 







Went for a road trip down Ericiera 

Lovely little road trip down the coast.

First stop was  Praia de Santa Rita Norte. This was a beautiful beach. 

What a place to surf this is! Praia de Santa Rit. 

Prefect little spot. Hardly anyone out. Great waves, easy access to the beach. 







Ribeira d'Ilhas, Ericeira

This statue represents a surfer. It's located in a viewpoint to the beach of Ribeira d'Ilhas, a place well known amongst the worldwide community of surfers.

It's a homage to the generation of surfers who grew up on these waves and an appeal for the preservation of the oceans and the environment.

What a place to surf, it wraps round the point beautifully. Not that busy for a Saturday.












A video of a few of the beaches

Surfing Supertubes

What an incredible day!








Alex's surfshop to pick up the boards




Checking out the spot

Nice beach













Beer on the beach after.


Little circular drive around Peniche

Wonderful coastline l, reminded me a bit of the great ocean road. Not that I've been there. Or Big Sur





Went for a surf in the afternoon. 

Was pretty blown out and choppy and absolutely rammed! Still had a couple of good waves though! 


Back to the Ride Spa for pub games. Decent Octopus for dinner












Was absolutely delicious!!!
