Body Boarding

Hello Everyone,
Rochelle is taking the week off so I'm taking a turn at providing some info for this blog.  The heat and humidity have eased off somewhat.  We're experiencing "fall". Temperatures are from 25-30 above rather than 30-35 with humidity so thick you walk 25 paces and you are drenched in sweat, now it takes 300-500 steps before this happens.
We're really enjoying the beach culture here and because it is such a novelty for us we will keep going till it cools down  to 20? (maybe in December).  We have found a beach called Big Wave Bay Beach and while it didn't really live up to its name last week it certainly did this week.  We rented a body board for about 2 dollars canadian and took turns riding the waves.  It was great fun.  Going down some waves felt like sledding down a hill back home.  Except a tad warmer.
We also did some mountain biking with friends on Friday October 1st, The People's Republic of China's 61st birthday, and it was quite challenging.  Yet wheeling through a bamboo grove was pretty amazing.  While it may sound we are on vacation please note most of these experiences occur only on weekends or holidays.  We do some work during the week.  Sure, sure… No really.
Anyways enjoy the pictures and I'm sure Rochelle will find something humerous and interesting to write for the chronicles next week.

Adios Dirk
