Remember what the dormouse said,
Feed your head!

So, last week I got this pretty card from Gail at Living Adventure near Bayfield, Wisconsin. I say Gail, because she’s the one who takes off all winter to suffer the heat of the Yucatan while leaving her poor husband Grant to shovel snow and answer the bi-monthly winter phone call. No, I’m just making that up. Maybe he gets to go along once in awhile. ;) In the summer Living Adventures is charged with organizing the Inland Sea Symposium in Bayfield meanwhile offering some fantastic guided tours of the Apostle islands. (Hey, their guides do the cooking. . .) Then each year about the first of January it’s off to the Yucatan with a variety of vacation packages designed to help you get your head together while surrounded by warm tropical breezes. Yeah, life is tough all over! Each package offers plenty of opportunities to paddle as you would guess. But they leave you plenty of time to swim, explore, or just lay around on the beach while muching fresh fruit and sipping hibiscus tea.

This year Living Adventure is offering a Mayan exploration trip which will give you the chance to explore some of the magnificent archaeological sites on the Yucatan and include a side trip to the "cenotes", which are beautiful underground fresh water pools that were once sacred to the Mayan people. They will also be offering an "Art/Adventure Series". So for those times when you’re out of your kayak you can explore your more artistic side through a variety of workshops. Both American and local artists with be on hand to share ideas and techniques. - More Details

Hmmmm. Hot sun, warm blue azure waters, fantastic food, painting, exploring Mayan ruins. . . I wonder if she needs a guide?
