Hosted by Scott Sheehan Directed & Produced by Michael Corbiere Day two in the state of Guerreros double your pleasure destination, and were itching for a bit of exercise. Surfing is a popular pastime (for many, a lifestyle) all around the world, and the coast around Ixtapa offers many great breaks to test your skills. Unfortunately, I dont have any yet, so I thought Id get a quick lesson with Leon, at Catcha Lola. He is a well-known fixture in town, and can teach you how to surf, or, if you already know how, he can take you around the region and share his knowledge of the secret spots. There were two of us out there for the first time in our lives. Me, and Ted from Oakville Ontario. We were given a cursory(!) lesson, and then unleashed upon the waves! Ive always wanted to try surfing, but the chance just hasnt come my way, or when it did, I always found the surfing dudes a little off-putting with their not on my wave, attitude. I am happy to report that on Playa Linda today, I experienced none of this. It was a totally unintimidating environment in which to flail around like a fish out of water in the water which was surprisingly warm, for the Pacific Ocean. And videotape doesnt lie I actually experienced the incomparable feeling of standing up on a surfboard and riding a wave!

Theres a reason we Canadians flock to Mexico around this time of year: Winter in our country is a season of unrelenting, soul-crushing, wintry brutality. And lets face it, an icy cold Mexican lager or six doesnt hurt. And the relationship between Canadians and their favourite vacation destination has always been a positive one. Weve come down to here to unburden ourselves of our work-a-day worries and woes, and the big-hearted Mexicans have soothed our frazzled minds and bodies with a walloping dose of relaxation, warm hospitality, and fun in the sun. But this year, things have seemingly soured somewhat. Trips by Canadians to Mexico have dropped by as much as 50%! Sure, weve all seen the media reports about the danger thats present in Mexico; the travel advisories, the well-intentioned warnings, the concerned looks from friends and family. But whats the real story? Whats really going on in Mexico? We thought wed come down here and find out for ourselves. Our first day in the sunny south finds us in Cancun, one of the worlds premier resort destinations. Should we have packed bulletproof vests, or would sunscreen and an emergency stash of Imodium be enough?
