Today was a national holiday here in Japan - Respect for the Aged Day (Keiro no Hi), so I expected there to be massive crowds like yesterday. As a result, I wanted to get up good and an early today. Also, the waves were really good early yesterday morning. So, I left the house at around 4:30 am in an effort to beat the crowds.
Here’s what it looked like when I arrived at 5:30 - already a lot more people there than a regular Monday but quite a lot fewer than yesterday. Unfortunately, the waves were also smaller than yesterday too.
Here’s what it looked like around 7 am. A little better, but not much.
