Quote from: Blizzard on Feb 24, 2026, 11:38 AMI raced as a kid and still only ski on slalom skis, so it'll be an adjustment for sure.

Honestly, I'd just rent skis while you are there.  SL skis will be no fun if you get any snow. And even without new snow, something a little wider and chiller will be more fun and less demanding.

I think the "relax on a beach" type of vacation is something I'm only interested in doing with a group of friends. If it's just my wife and I then we're going exploring - not physical activities but seeing cities and towns and road tripping between them. There's way too much of the world that I want to see.

I totally understand this feeling.  Yes it's always more enjoyable to be relaxing and sharing that time with friends and family, but trying to heard cats on a busy trip can be a major pain in the butt and likely more enjoyable as a pair or small group.

Was thinking about you and your Mexico trip plans when hearing about all the stuff going on down in Mexico right now, I know a few people who chose to cancel their trips to Mexico this spring because of it (mostly people who were planning on going with their children).

I got my hair cut today and my barber had just come back from Puerto Vallarta a day or two before that all started. We go to Yucatan which is the safest Mexican province and last I checked there are no issues there.
