Herve LeDoud house

Well, here we are, Carly and Tex Haines, staying at the home of Herve and Cree in France. The waves today are huge! Some rain, a little wind, and swell dropping over the next few days. I am with Bernardo of Bartardubreak and he lives in downtown Paris and we hope to visit him when we return to Paris on Monday. Pascal is here, the famous French tagger who created a couple of our best shirts for Victoria many years ago. The skimmer with the peace sign in his hand making the word Victoria as he skims. Around 2001 or 2002. And my other favorite the rectangle with a small red dot and a nike swoosh representing a wave. Inscrutable art. Classics!..... Tomorrow the contest at Hossegor will start. Probably waves too big, so Herve will run the contestants on Saturday in two time periods. The tides change so much that the window is small, so it will be good two times Saturday. Carly and I will probably drive Herve's car around and see the sights. Bayonne, Biarritz, and St. Jean de Luz. Tourists, what a pain!. Aren't we lucky? More later.......
