Boracay!

Our life has now become centered around the wind! There can be no kite boarding without the wind. We have been on the small island of Boracay for a week now and are loving every minute of it. We have paid a month in advance for our lovely hotel room so we have the luxury of staying in one spot and forgetting about our packs for a while. We invested in some knifes and cutting boards to cut up all the fresh fruit we can handle and there is plenty around. Mangoes are amazing here and we are trying not to overload on this delicious fruit. We can buy 4 mangoes for a dollar here and little baby bananas they call senoritas for 60 cents a kilo. Yummy!! In our first week we have completed our beginner kite boarding class. Which means we are safe to practice by ourselves now. But I am not so sure we are all that safe. Yesterday was our first day out on our own and we managed to not tangle our kite with anyone yeah!! But we are doing very little in the way of actually riding our board. We spend most of our time just trying to keep the kite under control. The kite boarding community is really fun here. Everyone is very understanding and positive. They say in 2 weeks we will be able to board the whole bay! Not sure if we believe that yet. We will keep working and maybe someday soon we will have a video

to show you.
