Bodysurfing in Mazatlan
With my bikini positioned properly, I ran full speed towards the waves. I hadn't bodysurfed in 15 years...
The tales and rumors you hear about warm Caribbean waters are true. The wind was blowing lightly and it was hot. Hot is hot and hot was missed especially from a girl used to living in the famed Pacific Northwest. My towel lay in the cabana beach chair. The sand was warm and before me was the Pacific Ocean. Waves consistently rolled against the shore, each one the whisper got louder, "You've been waiting for this. Come to me." I hadn't body surfed in 15 years. My bikini was properly positioned.
This was it. I left stress, worry and responsibility completely behind. I ran towards the waves and my feet hit the waves with force and power. I didn't stop and I was surprised at the warmth of the water. I jumped completely in, unafraid. Water washed over me, but so did joy. "How could anybody spend their whole life and not experience this?" I asked.
Visiting Mexico was one of the best things I could do for myself. I had been a single mom and was working full-time and going to school full-time. I had just graduated and I needed the break. The locals were friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely mouth watering. Portions are huge and the food was always fresh. When I lived in California, I considered myself a professional, part-time, self-proclaimed beach bum. Mexico embraces a slower way of life, emphasizing family, honor, manners and respect. It's cheap too with items costing 50% or less than you pay here in the States.
