BAJA NOMAD NINOS GOLF TOURNEY 2009
Because our golf tourney last April provided a great day of fun and excellent food besides a fine turn out of golfers not to mention the money we
donated to "Agua Viva" we are now planning another tourney for June 2009. it was a little cold in the afternoon at the course after the golf so we
think June would be perfect.
Those of you that wish to volunteer their time in this outing please let me know and we can get started now. I hope to double the prizes and get gifts
from various contributers in San Diego and Baja that will blow everyone away!
THIS IS ABOUT THE KIDS......... The money that was donated last year has really improved the facility at Agua Viva and makes life a little more
bearable for those kids.
Doc has approved the first meeting to be held at his casa.
You might think it's a little early for us to be doing this but we were under the gun last year and only had a few months to put it all together. 2009
tourney will really be great! Please join us in this event. Those of you in Rosirito as well as San Diego and Tijuana are more than welcome to be a
part of the organizing group. The more of us that can work together the better.....WE NEED YOU!

We don't golf and we usually only stop in Ensenada long enough to shop, but
if when it is closer to the time, you set up a place for either cash or other donations, that would be good.

Baja Guy, I can always count on you and the wife to make the best sandwiches and my family and I are looking forward to getting together while you are
down next week.
.JD and Udo thank you both. When we figure out who is doing what you both will be a big help. And Udo, we can talk about islands in the south pacific.
I have not forgot.....
And Dennis, I know you will be part of this again next year and please tell Bob that his help last year was outstanding and I hope he will be with us
again in 2009.
It is still a long way off so any of you that can offer a donation, or prize it will go to a good cause.

Count me in. Will help as needed. Expect to be in Punta Banda for the Chili cook off next week if all goes well. Will be pulling our 28 Ft
Alpenlite with a Gray 3/4 ton pickup. Our German Shepherd will be providing guard duty.
Hope to meet some of you all

LL... I have the capability to feed about 1000 people with all my catering stuff, but considering the distance I have to travel, I can prepare fish
tacos on site (i'll pick up the angelito at the fish market), and I'll bring about 20 gallons of my state winning chili. Jana will be there to help
also.

Udo & Jana,
Always looking for a volunteer! When we all get together and get this planned we will for sure let you know. Fish tacos would be very nice and I'm
always up for a bowl of chili!

I still have some KAVA left form our last trip...about 5 years ago. We can compare grades.
I used to take a capsule a day from the 4 kilos I brought back, but U.S. research had shown that KAVA, although intoxicating, was somewhat harmful to
the liver, therefore I quit taking it. I thought that the low age span of the fijians was due to poor medical care in the islands, but liver problems
seem to prevail in the native islanders (not the native Hindu Indians, of which there is an equal population, and the Hindus do not partake in the
Kava tradition.)
By the way, our chili is a big hit when used as a topping on tostones w/cheese/slasa/avocado relish. The flavors just explode.
I'll try to remember to bring some Fijian Rum. I have two bottles left that are about half full. I really savor those bottles, so we'll just have a
couple of shooters. The rum is 180 proof and really different.
When we get closer to the date, let me know where we can make hotel reservations. We'll probably get there the Friday of the weekend. We love La
Bufadora and generally eat at Habana Banana's for their raw oysters.

My driver in Nadi introduced me to the root. It was quite interesting the first time as with most things, the first time! When he brought me back to
the airport I had some time to kill so he took me to where the cabbies hang out at the airport in between flights and we sat there with about fifteen
of them and drank to our hearts content. I border the flight back to L.A. fell asleep and woke up after we landed.
Every time I go to Nadi I see all the cabbies that I was with that afternoon and they remember that day....
The Kava in Tonga and Samoa is completely different from the Fijian blend.
It seems like most of the south Pacific Islanders suffer from Diabetes. Their diet is terrible.
