Went with my friends Nicolas (France) and Tom (Austria) to the Kite Expo in Pismo Beach and stayed at Randy’s avocado ranch for the nights. Due to lack of wind on Sunday we decided to go further north and kited on a beautiful beach [map] in Cambria along Highway 1.

Unbelievable April! 30°C the last 3 days. After more than 6 hours of exhausting beach volleyball on Saturday I decided to have a good breakfast on Sunday. This time we went to Lime [yelp][map] in the Castro. It was okay, but not as good as Chow’s [yelp][map], where I’ve been two months ago for breakfast. In the early afternoon I chilled in Dolores Park [map] and later in the afternoon I went to 3rd Avenue for some kiteboarding. Yes, a very active weekend again. Fortunately I have a workday tomorrow and some time to recover from the weekend.

First time in Yosemite for this season. Mostly sunny during the day. Nights around 0°C, but warm enough to sleep without a tent though.
