MAAAAAAAATEE!!! Paint surfboards!!!!. You'd probably make more in a week working for a couple of companies. Do the touristy thing and say you can have a portrait of you (them) surfing on the board....... if there's no one doing it already (The Japanese love that kind of s__t!!! When you make you first million remember me. Just show some of the the big shaping companies your best surfing art work, then make up about a hundred different scenario templates in which you insert the buyers face, it doesn't have to be perfect just recognisable and "YOU CAN DO THAT" ! Your Wifey could probably make a fortune doing foot massages on the beach. There used to be a guy in Pt Douglas who used to charge $30.00 a half hour 15 years ago. He did about 5 a day but said he could have done 20 if he wanted to and could'nt be bothered hiring someone. He told me he'd done a one week intensive foot reflexology course. Wrapped to hear your'e having a well deserved break. Just remember once you move (not the hard part) and start working (the hard part) it's not a holiday anymore. Enjoy the dream and keep having FUN, get serious when you come home if you still can't get it out of your head!!!

I have told this story before but I'll tell it again.
Last year my son went for a holiday in Hawaii and to cut a long story short, he was paddling for a wave, his wave, on the inside when a big Hawaiian shouts out,"Nobody move , Nobody get hurt, and took the wave .And that's pretty much how the rest of the session went.

I didnt have any negative vibes in the water at all , but i guess it depends where you surf their i suppose! I love a good sunset and Hawaii has some great sunsets.

Wow your painting skills have improved teatreanice shot.

We had some drama in the water over there one day. Wouldn't stop us from gong back such a magical place.

Yeah mate im a much better photographer than painter I actually went longboarding as well while I was their , have to say it was a lot of fun. Maybe i had no dramas as by the time i got to Hawaii i was looking like the wild man from Borneau , had not shaved for a few weeks , not back wax for a few months
