The following morning Latto woke up with a terrible headache. He took a couple of aspirin and made himself some coffee. He put on a light blue shirt and some janes, and sat outside his room. As he looked down on the bwach, he coould see a few people already playing volleyball. Over to the right, in front of the Coast Santa Cruz Hotel, there were about twenty surfers out on their surfers out on their surfboards. Life here was very different. His hometown of Melrose in the south of Scotland was small compared to Santa Cruz. It wasn't by the sea the weather was often cold and wet, especially at this time of year.He smiles to himself and thonght about why he was here. There were people at home who needed him, patienth with Parkinson's Diseasa who needed his hlep. At the moment that was far more important than sun, sand and surf.
