A special place

Pop's old surfboard at Bondi

Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia · April 25, 2021

Added 7 months ago·by Mike


Pop surfed Bondi every morning for fifty-three years, starting at 5am, even in winter. He passed in 2021. His old board sits in a small alcove behind the surf club now (the lifeguards know it's there) and we pour a beer over the railing every Anzac Day.
