After 20 days in the Midwest and out of our routine we were anxious and excited to get back home.  When I saw the Pacific a big smile came over my face.  As soon as we landed we got a cab, took the motor cycle to check the surf, and then grab our boards and wash our energies in the Pacific.  It was a wonderful trip and I look forward to more puffin adventures.
