Pipeline Masters

We were lucky enough to go to Pipeline again this year. It was the perfect little vacation. We surfed, ate at some of our favorite restaurants, and saw the best 2 days of Pipeline.

This competition was in memory of Andy Irons. There were several cool murals of him.


Kelly Slater is still our favorite surfer. He is just so amazing to watch. He's not too bad on the eyes, either. ;) He surfed great but lost in the semis to Flores at literally the very last second. Kelly had already won the World Title for this year - and unprecidented 10th World Title!

The surfers are so nice and very approachable. Kelly Slater is so hard to get close to but he is so nice, even with all the chaos around him.

How fun!!! Is this what you guys did for Xmas?!? One of the first pics with the boys lined up sitting there with the huge wave & surfer in the background, they look so close to all the action---almost like the wave might take them out!

Love the pictures!
