Amansala retreat
I am about to embark on a yoga retreat to Amansala, in Tulum, Mexico. This week long retreat comes after a 3-day business trip to Palo Alto, California. Starting yesterday (Monday) morning, I took off for DIA at 6:30am with my boss, Dean. We traveled the usual route, and arrived a good hour and 1/2 before my plane left. But, I did not plan on the long lines at the airport. Long story short, I made my plane with 30 seconds to go, running down concourse A, while they were calling my name for last boarding. I’ve never been the last one to board a plane. It took a while to come back to my yoga breath after that event.
We arrived in Santa Clara, and were blessed with a car that smelled like dead fish. I mean, DEAD FISH. Sasha, our agile team leader, said it smelled like he was riding on the wrong end of a camel. He asked me what camel was in sanskrit , and I replied Ustrasana. He enjoyed knowing the sanskrit name that appropriately represented the smell of our car.
Tomorrow, (Wed), I head back to Denver, where I can rest for 8 hours before my plane to Cancun, Mexico. I’m not taking my computer, so I apologize for not blogging next week, but I did pack my journal, so I will come back and blog my yoga retreat details when I return. Check back in one week!
Namaste,
