Magical

There's something magical about being in the ocean in the early morning.
If in-eye cameras had been invented, I would have snapped a photo of a glassy translucent wave, about to break in front of me, studded with silvery fish illuminated by the low morning sun. And the pair of seals sinuously breaking the calm surface of the sea and then sliding back underneath. And most especially, the dolphin who surfed a clear unbroken wave about 30 feet away. Magical!

I'm still amazed that I can surf in the city of San Diego entirely alone (except for a dolphin). The waves were small and soft but still fun, and after Howard and a couple other guys left, I enjoyed the solitude of the sea.
