We had been driving the high way one from north of napa valley and downwards. We started to get pretty hungry and bham there where the first restaurant we´d seen for a few hours. Happened to be the one that started to tradition to grill oysters, so we had a plate of those and a shellfish soup with a crab, shrimps, clams (sånna snäckor man brukar plocka på stranden), blue muscles, shellfish and loads of more goodies fished just outside of our window. After a while we figured we ended up eating in the middle of Californias seafood paradise, and definitely on one of the best restuarants. Pretty cool and super good. Thanks Sarah & co. for giving us great service too!

We headed back to San Francisco to meet Ballen, to look at the beautiful landscape along high way one, to taste some wine, and maybe most important, to collect a huge box of stuff from our sponsor Sea to Summit. Wait and see guys and enjoy this sunset until then!

We have had an awesome time in this city. It’s the first time we visit the states and we have constantly been in chock of how real everything is. The skysrapers, the statue of libety, brooklyn, the brewery, the sreets and avanues, central park, the christmas feeling, the crazy people in the subway, the smoke coming out of the street and the new yorkers accent. Everything which we have been fed with from all the american movies are for real and ten times more than that. It’s greater than any other city we have been and we´ve been to a lot of them. If you hav’nt been you just gotta go! Please ask us if there is anything specific you want to know about our visit here.

Until further stuff is coming up here we would like to whish all of you a happy new year! We are currently at our boardsponsor Bing in Encinitas, California. We have been surfing all days long and hanging out at the factory. We are going to celebrate tonight at John Wegners house and the last few days has been all about the guys at Bing discussing which beer to get. But it’s understandable cuz they just don’t buy a case or two but a whole cag (fat) of beer!! + red party cups. Did you read it, RED PARTY CUPS.

We are excited.

Cheers everyone and a Happy New Year!

Just before we left Sweden we got a big box with wetsuits, swimwear and clothes from Billabong Europe. We are so thankful and can’t wait to show you them! In New York I didn’t have to much use of the bikinis.. But that something I will hopefully get here in California. Thank you so much Billabong!

Healthy well prepared vegan/vegetarian food at Bedford Avenue, Williamsburg. Bliss Café is a good break from the buzzing street life. Sit down and relax, enjoy awesome food for a good price and friendly staff. We had the Black Bean burrito (9$) and Soup of the day (4$).

We left our apartment at wall street, grabbed a cup of starbucks and walked the Brooklyn Bridge. It didn’t end there, I think we have walked about 30-40 kilometers today, at least. The bridge was definitely the better part of it.
