Headed down with Kai for a few days since I haven't started teaching yet.  Got there a bit late, but was nicely powered on the 5.0.  Tried everything, completed zero.  I felt tired and was not fully on my game.  It also was a bit lonely with only a handful of people on the water who were staying further out.  Then Don came out and started doing DW360's, which I watched and tried to immitate.  That was fun and he passed on some good advice about being patient and pushing on the clue to keep from getting pummeled backwards.
