When Pollution Kills Your Surf
After taking a little vacation back to the States to visit the family and friends, I was stoked to get back to my warm water and good surf in Mexico. Much to my dismay, a sewage pipe broke and flowed into the river (it is only a river in the summer rainy season), rushing turds and white toilet paper pieces into the beautiful ocean. Of course it had to happen now, when there is a gorgeous swell hitting the right and left break, instead of June/July/August when there are no waves. What a downer! At the time of the sewage leak, the risk of hepatitis, staph infection or gnarly rash made me not go near the water. Now, it’s been about two weeks and I see surfers out in the water, some may know about the problem, some may not. The water has definitely cleared up, so I think I might join the others tomorrow morning and take my chances. I’ll keep you all posted on my health status!
