Body-boarding in Newquay, by Mick
In Newquay, England I immediately wanted to bodyboard when I saw the Newquay Harbor beach and all of the people riding the waves and wiping out. I asked my dad if I could rent a wetsuit and a bodyboard and he said, “Yes, but not today.” I waited and waited for two whole days to bodyboard and I finally did. It was the first time I had ever tried on a wetsuit and it felt really weird. I quickly got used to it and had lots of fun bodyboarding. I was so sad my rent time was up and the tide was coming in, too, but a soft-serve ice cream made up for it. We walked home through the jumpin’ town and I took a shower that felt great. I got into clean clothes, got in my cozy bunk bed, and took a nap.
