Ixtapa in 36 Words ... Plus Photos

So I've been trying to come up with a single six-word string that might adequately sum up our Ixtapa trip into one succinct little bundle.

Can't be done.

Instead, I've come up a series of six, six-word strings that retell just a portion of the trip:

What fun! Anniversary adventure! Parasailing together!

Take off goes wrong. Wind dies.

Ten foot waves. Sucked under thrice.

Caught in ropes. Pulled to safety.

Onlookers. Big scene. Bruised. Battered. Nightmares.

Thankful: swimming lessons, each other, life.



Photos: My body bore the brunt of our tumble with the sea.

No. No rocks involved. All those bruises are from ropes. My left arm and left leg got completely tangled in the ropes.

And now they are turning some beautiful shades of yellow and green.
