A few weeks ago, I visited Sydney, a perfect place to surf. I knew I couldn't leave it without going surfing (I). I booked a group surf lesson when I was in Byron Bay. Byron Bay is really popular place for professional surfers to go!
We first were asked to learn how to read the sea conditions and to expect in the water. Then we did a warm-up by (run) along the beach. Next, it (be) time to learn how to stand on the surfboard. We did it on the sand. After a lot of practice, we were ready to go out into the sea try it out on the water. I have to say, surfing is much (hard) than it looks. When you watch people from the beach, they make it look so easy! I failed many (time) to stand up. Then one of the coaches came to help me and held my board steady (平稳的).
Finally I learnt how to do that and by the end of the lesson I had managed to "walk on water". It was an (amaze) feeling and I felt so proud myself!
