Javier Baldovinos

Happy Wednesday and Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Even in Nicaragua we all celebrate this day, just check out that greenish color of the waves... it's just pure celebration!

I started working on today's report from Casa Rock right in front of Rosada beach in Rancho Santana. Sadly there was only one surfer and not much waves to ride.

I waited for the tide to come up and then went to check out Colorado... only two guys out there but not so great.

Just look at this guy thinking: "should I paddle out or not? what do you think weird photographer taking photos of me?"

Javier Baldovinos

Most of the waves were closing out so, he didn't paddle out.

I peeked over to Panga Drops and I saw a totally different story... so I headed that way.

This is the perfect board meeting, and by looking at their faces looks like they all had a great time at Pangas.

Check it out! Panga Drops was today's Lucky Charm, delivering some great green shots, the perfect way to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day!

For all the people that use this celebration to get drunk (is there any other way to celebrate it??), here is some information about Saint Patrick's Day:

Javier Baldovinos

Saint Patrick's Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick is a cultural and religious celebration held on 17 March, the traditional death date of Saint Patrick (c. 385 – c. 461), the foremost patron saint of Ireland.

Javier Baldovinos

Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, Irish traditional music sessions, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks. Drinking (massive amounts of) alcohol – particularly Irish whiskey, beer, or cider – has become an integral part of the celebrations.

Javier Baldovinos

No, this girl is not drunk, she just have a great style surfing on her longboard.

Javier Baldovinos

Saint Patrick's Day celebrations have been criticised, particularly for their association with public drunkenness and disorderly conduct. Some argue that the festivities have become too commercialised and tacky, and have strayed from their original purpose of honouring St Patrick and Irish heritage.
