Hi long time lurker but first time poster, really appreciate what you guys do here for fans
So I was trying to take a look at the shadows from the pic of the Surfers compared to the one of Jess and Cody.
Here's a little graphic I quickly did up from an image of the intersection off of Google maps...
The A is the Topics, the B is the Cabo/Capo building seen behind Jess and Cody, and the C is approximately where the Zimbabwe Bank seen behind Phil would be. The red line represents a guess at the angle of the mat with Phil facing towards B.
Anyway, in the picture with the Surfers, the cameraman's shadow lines up with the angle of the mat, whereas in Jess and Cody's pic it a building's shadow (probably C) is going across the mat. This suggests Surfers arrived before noon while Jess/Cody arrived in the afternoon, considering that in the Southern Hemisphere after the spring equinox the sun rises and sets to the south of due east. Assuming the Surfers/Skiers arrived close together, both would be ahead of Jess/Cody.
Could be completely off-base, but figured I'd give a crack at it
