Costa Rica
I would have to say that there is always an unwritten competition. So I have been warned to give equal billing to my kids. It’s good that I have one of each so that I can say that Julia is my favorite daughter and David is my favorite son. Costa Rica apparently is a surfing destination. When we visited there wasn’t much surf to speak of. However, David hopped up on a board without a lesson and rode on in. I guess his ski skills helped. And of course the waves aren’t too challenging. But I have to say it’s not bad for the first time without a lesson.

Skiing skills would definitely help, but it would be such a different experience because your water base is moving where snow is usually not. I skied during an avalanche which was a very eery feeling underneath the skis. It carried me and it was very hard to maintain a direction. When I visited Costa Rica, there was no surfing going on either. Probably best at certain times of the year.
