Rob, I've stayed at that LaQuinta. It's almost right across the road from the South flats. Get a room up on the 2nd floor or higher on the North side and you can see the flats pretty good. Bring some binoculars and you can check the conditions right form your balconey. Free broadband too. Pool & beach on the gulf side. You'll probably be sailing North flats, just up the road, but it's nice to get a first hand view of wind conditions right out the window.
Anna Dunklee and I will be flying in on the 22nd and leaving the 27th. We're takin the cheap road and staying at the Isla Blanka Park with the Terry and Cathy. I can't wait. It's drivin me crazy just thinking about it.
I'll be down the week of Thanksgiving, too! Pete, & a van load of windsurfers are driving down for a 2 week stay. Don't forget to pay Jibber
your $20 access fee, so they can keep the Flats open & maintained! Keep
your sticker and use it again next spring, & it looks super kool on your windshield! Can't wait homeys! See you at Fajita Nite @ Louies. JN
boo hoo, we're heading down the week before. We'll be down there the 13th-20th. I might have to miss the flight back and stay a few more days to ride with the clan from the North.
Kathy and I will be there 11/17--11/27. Anna and Eric are joining us over Thanksgiving weekend. Are any of you ex-windsurfers turned kiters bringing windsurfing gear?
Yo tyson I think we might be hitchhiking cause we still dont have a firm answer from adam.. Dave C. maybe u can call him tonight and confirm that or tommorrow?? other wise Tyson u are sittin b!tcH in large marges Semi.. Tyson wats your phone#icant find it 715-22?-????
Terry....sun country won't let us put the windsurfers in the overhead, so kite only.
Dean got some photos showing the flats have been flooding this fall, so that wonderful slippery mud is there. Hopefully it will have dried out again by the time we get there.
Lose the fins & ride the mud! JN P.S: No pole boards 4 me this time. Phillip loves renting out his SAXO, though! We can drag race with Kunkle (reigning "Kahuna of the Laguna").
Something tells me this is going to be a gas, we have to do a trip accross the border one night, get Jeff and Patti Hoxtel to come along, they're great company for a silly session.
Steve the last time you had a silly session with Jeff and Patti across the boarder, Nancy and you we're a little heavy headed the next day. Jeff and Patti know how to show a good time, thats for sure.

Little heavy headed......I can't remember the last time we were out till 3 am.....nearly hurt me as much as the kite crossing hurt Tighe.
We'd parked the van at Jeffs shop, the condo was 1/2 a mile away, 3am we're stood there discussing whether we dare risk driving the half mile, there's no one any where. We decide NO we'll walk, turn around and there's a cop car, bugger was just waiting for us, we walked
Very amusing night , Jeff and Patti are great fun, we also had Joe ( the cuban) and eileen from N.J. with us, they're trouble too.
yeah we're going to be down the entire week of thxgiving prlly get there late on the 18th ... pretty much going to be the greatest week of my life. too bad liquid force won't have restocked my broken board yet oh well, looks like riding the wakeboard! anywho, since theres a few days of overlap where basically everyone will be there (around the 19th) we should make sure we have some whole-crew MN partying and riding
I am heading to SPI on Saturday. Will be there from 5 Nov through 10 Nov. A windsurfer from Cedar Rapids and I are going to drive straight through. Can't wait....
