"High Tide...Mid Afternoon"...the sea gently caresses the edges of the shore...
"Come into Adho Mukha Svanasana"
........."and hold for a moment"
(I Hold)
"Relax your face... Relax your breathing"
... I am relaxing (or trying my best too) although my face is definitely clenched (and probably red through lack of breathing) and my legs are (definitely) shaking.
...(Allegedly) this is good for you.
People come to Mancora for it´s consistent surf, good weather and partying.... although it definitely appeared that I wasn´t catching waves and working on my "downward dogs" and "hip flexers instead...
(...Bender!... although i did make a token effort one morning...she (the sea) were a bit too rocky and salty for my liking)
It had been some time since I had "clapped eyes" on the sea proper * (what with being in landlocked Bolivia and hiking on the Andean spine of southern Peru)...
(* the sea proper.... wearing shorts, getting a bit pink and sandy)
...As I result I made it (Mancora) home for a couple of weeks...
Nowt much to do in Mancora but Surf, drink Beers (may I add with a very stimulating bunch) and occasionally plant my face into a sweaty yoga mat...although I did do my best "Brian in Cocktail" impression and worked the bar at Kokopelli.
Namastay
