As a result of an injured back incurred from either some evil rocks at Lennox or a 50ft cliff jump or more likely both I am about to embark on something I have not tried since entering Australia...

...a one week surfing stoppage.

This will hopefully give my back enough time to heal properly or for me to at least figure out what's wrong with it.

It's currently Day 1; 7:39AM and I'm already going stir crazy.

I am armed for today with classic movies Point Break and Surf's Up and a long list of university application paperwork.

Wish me luck.
