Boogie Boarding in Zipolite Nov. 2017



Here's a few photos of Boogie Boarding in Zipolite today!



Today we finally went in the water. We had waded and put our feet in and Mother Ocean had come up and kissed our toes but finally after a almost of month we went in.

The waves are calmer now. And we are a bit more acclimatized.

Angel borrowed a boogie board from Aguila de Zipolite -- the life guard, whom I have known since before Angel was born. His son Erik, helped her getting used to the water and board and then she was just having fun by herself.

Muchos Gracias Aguila and Erik.

I went swimming, well it is more like wading and dunking, you swim left and right, and never go out far, especially without a board.

Be very careful of the waves. Always watch the flags and watch where the locals swim and ask a lifeguard if you can.

People do and have drown. We got caught off guard once, maybe that is why we waited this time. So glad that Aguila is back. Yayyy!

Here is a blogpost of mine from 2012.

At the 14 minute mark in the short film below, you can see Aguila and another lifeguard Ray rescue someone. That was in 2008
