9/10
Wednesday did offer a great day for out-door! Spending some hours surfing and then fresh up and get some lunch really put you in a good mood. I was excited to meet the MBC members for the first time and today it was soccer on the schedule. You could really tell that they had arrived because of all the energy they had. It was a nice time playing soccer with the kids and time flew by while being all into the game. Some of them are very competitive, still it’s all for fun and not so serious. It was so cute when one of the boys told me I was a good soccer player, it’s a sport I like but haven’t been playing for many years. That’s what I love about MBC, you get to do all of these activities you wouldn´t do at home. Tomorrow we have the surfing with the kids and on Friday we are going on a hike to the Devils Peak. Hope the weather will be on our side. I did expect it to be a lot warmer here now, but because of the wind and the fact that it´s only the start of the summer you still need to wear warm clothes. However, next week it’s predicted to be sunnier. Compared to Sweden where I come from it is a lot better weather, I don’t miss the autumn at home now!

Who doesn’t remember the record of 110 surfers riding the same wave during the 2009 Earthwave Festival at Muizenberg ?
5 surfers from MBC will have the opportunity to participate to this festival through inter-schools surfing championships. Who will represent the MBC? It’s time for the selections !
