Leaving Lembongan

I had few great surfs on Lembongan last week. One big day I found myself caught inside on the outgoing tide with rising swell at Shipwrecks, it was quite scary for me. The seaweed stakes provide and added element of hassle and potential danger- I surfed the other big days at Playgrounds, which doen'st really deserve that name. Playgrounds is both a right and left, and the right gets quite shallow with the lowering tide. The left is great fun, and stays pretty deep most tides. Although, if you stuff up the take off for either direction on a lower tide there is potential to scrape the coral, which did happen to me. So Playgrounds, well the name is debateble. I was pretty surfed out from the past few weeks. If you can believe it- but its hard work...I hurt my neck while surfing and so I find myself in Ubud, relaxing, and recharging before I head to Sumbawa for more waves.

I have found and old mate of my dad's who has a lovely hotel here, Green Fields. Adjacent to his place are lush green rice fields-hence the name! I will be relaxing here for the next few days.

T Rex is still with me and he has found and architectural detail at Green Fields which he is quite fond of.
