So I went back to Maderas to give myself some surf therapy. My plan was to surf non-stop for three days. No lounging around on the beach, no socializing, no snorkeling, just surfing. And this I did. On my return to the beach I jumped in the water and stayed there for three days, getting out only to eat and sleep. I was first in the water each morning, half a hour before first dawn light, and last out of the water, well after dark. Then I'd eat something and go to bed. No conversation, no beer, just sleep. Then up again the next day before dawn's first light.
And dammit it worked. I was exhausted, but felt fit. I'd scored some of the best waves of the trip, small but long and perfect. And my smile came back. Time to leave the country....
