Oh, Mexico ! : Part III
Posted By Duncan Chappell on 9 May 2004
I was happy with what I'd achieved but still a little frustrated. As soon as I start getting frustrated I may as well call it a day because things tend to just get worse. After taking my own advice we turned the boat back to shore.
The worst thing about the last day of a holiday is having to pack the night before an early start. It sort of hits home a bit early that this is it, that's ya cracker, time up, game over, collect your kit and back to Blighty.
Tuesday
Homeward bound. We set off early from camp, at the first light. I don't remember talking a lot in the truck on the way back to La Paz, lost in my own thoughts probably. I did see a road runner, though.
I am not really one for long partings, so once my luggage was checked in and the flight was on the departure board, we said our goodbyes and I was alone, back again where my Mexican adventure began.
Most of the return journey was spent daydreaming, reliving the last two weeks, delaying the onset of the reality check I was going to get when I arrived back in Sheffield.
If you fancy something a little bit different and a bit special, and for me, an experience of what freediving is, was or just can be about, then Baja is a nice spot and the company is great.
I don't think I could really put into words how at home I felt, and my gratitude for the time I had with the Solomons, but I'm sure they know how much I enjoyed myself. So on a personal note, in short, thanks again, folks, for a fantastic time and some fantastic experiences. I'll see you soon.
