Sailing

Spring Break 2009!

For Spring Break this year Matt and I decided that we would do something that we had talked about since I lived in San Diego--we would take sailing lessons!

So, we headed down to the Galveston Bay to Lakeside Sailing School.

We stayed aboard a small sailboat for the week and all of our adventures started there.

The first couple of days were the ASA 101 class with some sailing time but unfortuatly the weather was awful! Cold, rain, wind--yuck!--no fun!

Luckily the weather cleared up and we were able to enjoy over 60 hours of sailing in our ASA 103 & 104 classes! We also met some great people and buddied up with them for the remainer of the week.

Our week was packed full of activity. We visited the Houston Space Center, Kemah Board Walk, Galveston beaches, a few local restaurants & bars and even cooked Fish Tacos at the Thrift's condo one night. We enjoyed a lakeside picnic and a big St. Patrick's Day party too!
