One of the things that Sydney has always wanted to learn to do is surf. Christmas Break her dream came true. Thanks to "google" we were able to find an Australian certified surf instructor who happened to live in DaNang. He generously agreed to teach the kids to surf.
The weather was cool that morning. Brooklyn and I were pretty happy to cuddle up on the beach chair and watch the lesson from the Beach. The day started with a brief safety lesson. This safety conscious mother thought that was a great way to start. John and our friend Shane, certified lifeguard instructor, headed out in the waves with the kids. Quinton appreciated the extra hands. Quinton has been living in Vietnam for seven years. He was very familiar with our stretch of beach and did a great job keeping the kids safe. They had a fantastic day and even managed to get up on the boards. We could not have asked for a better first experience.
