This vacation has been pretty amazing. We are definitely fans of Zihuatanejo and will be sad to leave on Sunday. Since we last blogged DawnO and I have had some pretty cool experiences including a couple of bucket list items that have now been checked off.
On January 1, DawnO went fly boarding. If you haven’t heard of it, I suggest you google it and watch a few videos. It’s a board that allows you to hover over the water like the Green Goblin. Dawn said the experience was comparable to bathing the elephant in Nepal. In both cases she got a face full of water that was salty for different reasons.
This morning I got to take a turn and it was quite fun. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to get up, but once I got the hang of it, it was quite easy to manoeuvre around. I would definitely recommend it.
DawnO also took a surfing lesson. She got up on her first attempt. Nailed it. She then proceeded to get up 80% of the time after that. I don’t know if being a yoga Jedi helps, but it definitely doesn’t hurt.
All-in-all we have had a great trip. We head back to the great white north tomorrow afternoon, but we will be back in Mexico at the end of January. We will be in Huatuco with my extended family for an Olson wedding! We will probably blog then.





Awesome! Burning fossil fuels for entertainment? You should be ashamed of yourselves. Now I won't feel so guilty.
Surfing on your first go? That nullifies any shame I may have made you feel. That is straight up awesome! Yes RobO, I bet yoga helps. I doubt I'd be able to get it right away.
Nice work RobODawnO. Glad you are having a super vacation.
