"paying a debt"

There’s a saying in my language: “Lo prometido es deuda” which translation means (literally) “Every promise is a debt”. In other words, you must fulfill every promise that you make. So, here I am, paying my debt and sharing some pics of my vacations with you!

Someone asked me sometime if there were surfers in my country (I mean, if there were people who practice surf). At that time, I couldn’t answer him sincerely, but now I have news: when I was on vacation, there was a day when the sea has risen, and the beach has totally disappeared. It was an incredible spectacle! My friend and I walked around the footbridge over the beach, and took some photos. And then, we saw it: there, in the middle of the sea, so faraway, there were two surfers!!!
We stood watching it and we noticed there weren’t two, but three, four, five, almost six surfers!!!!!
If you look the first photo, you’ll be able to see two of them (the first two that we saw). Sorry for the quality and size, it was the closest we could stand.
The second one is a common day at beach, and the third when the sea was rise (this is for you understand and see the difference between a sea in normal state and when it’s rise).

[As you can see, my friend finally gave me the photos, but then I noticed that they weren’t so much as I’ve imagined… so I’m a little disappoint right now. Anyway, I think I can write about others things, and post others pics that I like. Hope you'll like it!!]

Very cool! I've never seen people surfing in person before--¡qué lástima, porque vivo en California! Glad you had fun on your vacation.

[We stood watching them and we noticed there weren’t two, but three, four, five, almost six surfers!!!!!] --> lo que quiero decir es que de pronto aparecieron más surfistas, que antes no veíamos porque las olas los tapaban (y porque no habíamos prestado demasiada atención claro)

Gracias por las correcciones!!!!

No puedo hacer surf. Si hiciera surf, me volcaría y me ahogaría en el mar :)
