Today many people had the same idea – staying at home. The conditions coupled with the later sun rise meant the Monday numbers dwindled down to a mere handful – A day when a warm bed and a cup of coffee came out on top. Personally I opted for somewhere in the middle; staying firmly on the sidelines, some wave watching and a warm cafe with the boys.
Waiting for first light
Just when it appeared no one would be venturing out a few keen regulars still managed to ‘find their flow’ and pull together in the spirit of Ubuntu.
6:55am and still no crowds…
