Photo of The Day: Surfing in Bali |

Before becoming parents, René Brask and his wife Sophie traveled around the world in search of waves to surf. The pair from Denmark found a fine place in Bali, a mountainous Indonesian island just south of the equator in the Java Sea, and returned to it every year for five years running. As it seems to always go, one day they learned they were going to have a baby. "When my wife got pregnant," Brask says, "we agreed not to become as all the others who, after getting children, changed their lifestyle and started to get so boring." They returned to their hideaway in Bali with little furry-headed Anton, put him on a board, and, based on the look on Sophie's face, all went swimmingly. To rub it in a little bit, the surfer-photographer-father writes us, "We have been traveling with our child since he was 4 months where we had one month paternity leave on Maui." Yes, that's paternity leave. We've got to get that tradition going in the U.S.A. |
