March 13th marked another tremendous day in the life of Christine. She said goodbye to 28 and is now staring down the barrel of her 30's. We figured the only way to celebrate adding another year would be to do something that would make us feel young. When we were down in Mission Beach with her parents, we discovered the Wavehouse. For those of you unfamilar, this is a bar that has 3 fake waves in it. Basically you stand on a board that is nothing more than a skateboard deck with no trucks or wheels. The water rushes over a sort of soft surface, I'd liken it to feeling of a gym mat. So we climbed on this thing and gave it our best shot.

Things get ugly quickly

And it's over

Now it's my turn

This did not feel good

Seriously, my neck hurt for 4 days after about 5 falls like this

Big boy wave

When we got there, we swore that at least Chris had to do this thing, but after an hour on the little one, we threw in the towel. It wasn't that we didn't want to try the big one.....we were all so sore and beat up, that we couldn't. I guess we all got a little older that day.
