Day Fourteen: Surf's Up!

More days that need to be described with exclamation points...apparently. Anyhow, awoke late in the morning, put on swim trunks, and followed Josh to the airport to return his rental car. Almost died on the way, damn traffic, I had to quickly change lanes doing 90, miss a van, and yank back to make an exit. It was fun.

So, back to Josh's, all in my car now, and we hit up an In N' Out again. Again, amazing. We all got our stuff Animal Style, which is not on the menu, also known as a secret item. It is where you are able to order a second and third heart attack with one order! Think of the possibilities!

Then to Redondo Beach we went. It was pretty cool, we walked a long way down before deciding to turn back, then swim. The tide was coming in and the undertow was very strong, but the waves were perfect for body surfing. I have never been in such good surf. Although, there was one downside: uneven ground. One second you would be in waist high water, the next second you could not touch the ground and were inhaling the entire wave that has engulfed you...that, and the undertow kept pulling you out, even if you wanted to stay. But, we were fine, body surfed for a while, then made our way back to the car. We drove around the mansions that line the cliffs on the Pacific for a bit, then went back to Josh's apartment to get ready for dinner downtown.

We went to _(insert name of eatery here)_ , and after we were seated and looked at the menu, we all kinda realized that it was somewhat out of our price range. So, a consensus and reached pretty quickly: split two large platters between the four of us. The waitress recognized right away that we were hungry, poor young adults, and she quickly brought us some bread. It did not survive long. The platters came, and we went at them like Tasmanian Devils. In 20 minutes flat, we were in and out of the restaurant, full and happy. We walk around towards the docks for a while, then head back to the car. None of us drink too much back at the apartment, and sleep comes quickly.
