Kids with Guns

We hit our first Cali waves today. Point Loma. Point Loma university sits right on a great break. We drove through security in our big yellow bus and of course attracted attention. We parked the bus up on the cliff as we climbed down and paddled out. From far off in the water we saw a security truck checking out our bus. After hearing some horror stories of huge fines and towings, Kelly and Clint made the mad dash and paddled back in to move the bus to a spot they wouldn't tow us from.


We are perpetually plagued with people being suspicious of our bus. Yesterday evening in downtown San Diego, two cops asked to board our bus and search for a missing person. Really? Of all San Diego, why our bus? Then 5 minutes ago as we parked the bus on the street in front of our friends in public parking, this lady freaked out on us. She told us we couldn't park there. She had no real reason. We told her she was just giving us a hard time because we were kids. She then went off "Yeah, well kids can get guns, and then they kill people!" She made a machine gun motion. We told her thanks for welcoming us into the neighborhood and we left the bus on the street.

People either love the bus, or they are scared of it!
