Travelling

Had a very interesting January

Was not  able to make it to the Kwoon much but looking forward to getting back to full time training with classes.

I was able to make it down to Belize with my oldest son for some time in the Caribbean.  Not everyone knows this but I started Kung Fu with my older son to do something physical between hockey seasons.  After his first summer he didn't continue with Kung Fu but I liked what I was learning and kept on with training.

I would highly recommend travelling with your adult child.  It is a great experience as a father to see your son experience the world and a new country as an adult.  We were able to meet many people in our time there and had a great experience with the culture of Belize.  Belize is a poor country and you can see poverty most places but the people are incredibly friendly.  I became friends with a few of the locals and am already planning meeting with them on my next trip.

We were able to go scuba diving, which is a passion of his and of mine.  To experience the same sights under water and then to talk about them is something I will carry with me the rest of my life. Seeing sea turtles, sharks and barracuda's along with the incredible diversity of the corals on the barrier reef is breathtaking.

We haven't yet talked about travelling again but I know that we will go to some other place in the near future.
