Well I am back with both feet on the ground (what a
wonderful feeling). I accomplished my
goal of getting and staying on a plane without any crash landings or emergency
stops because of the crazy lady pulling on the door handle trying to get
out. Although I can’t say that I loved
the ride, I did get an amazing view
going over the Grand Canyon that will stay with me forever. Our destination made it all worth it. To leave 2 feet of snow still on the ground
and go to 33 above with green grass and colors, smells and sounds that were
beyond beautiful would force pretty much anyone to get on a plane. Man have I been missing out!
I have to admit I got a little behind on some
requirements. I’m playing catch up on
some push ups and sit ups. I found out
that although a beautiful and peaceful place to do forms, the beach sand also
is really hard to keep ones balance. Also didn't think it a good idea to try getting a broadsword in my luggage. Might have raised a few eyebrows and taken me to the back room at customs.
Kilometers were awesome! One day alone we put on 25km. At the resort we were staying at, they were
holding a National Karate Tournament with teams from Canada, US and Mexico. Unfortunately they started as we were getting
in a cab for the airport, but we did get to watch some of the practicing. Very cool!
We had an absolutely great time!
We did decide that next time it would be a good idea to brush up on the Spanish (need to know more than where is the bathroom?). Maybe start watching Dora
the Explorer or better yet beg my sister in law for lessons. Oh Steph……
So now I am back to reality. April was full of courses, got to go on a
great holiday and now we are hitting the ground running with work. I think it’s going to be a busy summer!
