Fun OB weekend.... turns out there was poop out there

Super fun weekend of surf at the local beach. There had been a bit of rain, but no alerts about water cleanliness. Turns out we were rockin in some poopy water. I'm not sure what (MPN/100mL) means exactly. But I do know that on a normal day, it's less than 10, and over the weekend it was at 309. That's gross. No wonder I was feeling a little queasy yesterday. Check out the SFPUC site.

Next Trip: Top 5 Destinations

Even though OB San Francisco is actually waking up, and I realistically won't be able to do another biggish trip until the summer, it's always tempting to think about where to go next. Here's what I'm thinking now both in terms of desire and what's realistic:

1. El Sal (highly realistic, want to see those right points)
2. Back to Indo (less realistic because it's a bitch to plan and get to, but what more could ya want?)
3. Peru (I hear you can make it worthwhile with 14 days, would want to see some stuff besides the surf too, maybe save this for when I have more time?)
4. Morocco (maybe slightly less difficult than Indo, and it's been on the list for a long time.)
5. South Africa (will probably do this one in 2010 when my good buddy in SF who's from there is planning on heading back for an extended trip)
