"WHAT
TO WEAR THERE" winning entry by Polly from Santa Fe, New Mexico
Oh, What to Wear When in the Air?
Elastic waists, sleeveless tops
To keep you comfy when it's hot.
Sitting on the tarmac, waiting to go
You need to be able to wiggle your toes.
Take a shawl to throw around your shoulders
Will come in handy if you feel colder.
Do carry-on only and keep it light
Who wants to spend vacation being uptight
Waiting for lost luggage and filling out forms
When you could be seeing the sights or heading back home.
When on long flights, compression socks are a must--
Without them, your veins could surely bust.
Announcing the Winner of the Athleta Summer Giveaway
"You're joking, right?"
That's the phrase Ann of Paris, Maine kept repeating when she
found out that she had won a Las
Olas Surf Safari. Ann, who has
never won a contest, says she entered the Athleta Summer Giveaway, "because
I thought it sounded like an amazing experience, but never thought
I'd have a real shot at actually winning it!"
But she did win, and what could be better for a woman who grew
up on the Pacific Coast, lives on the Atlantic Coast, and has
always wanted to learn to surf? Ann acknowledges that, "Living
so near the ocean my entire life, it's kind of unbelievable to
have never had the opportunity to surf."
Now that opportunity has knocked, Ann is gearing up for her
long awaited surf safari. Her goal is to, "get myself out
there surfing." She's eager to soak up the surf knowledge
offered by world class instructors and she is excited about bringing
home "great stories (and pictures!) for my family about
my adventures at Las Olas." Ann also plans to get energized
during daily yoga sessions and simply "enjoy being in the
moment of it all!" That should be easy enough when she's
catching great warm-water waves on Mexico's lush Pacific Coast,
sipping a perfect Margarita on the beach, or enjoying the wonderful
company of new surf buddies.
Congratulations Ann!
