Impromptu Itinerary of Witnessing Wonders
A week ago today, I boarded a little boat in Cabo to eat sweet potato donuts...and, whale watch.
I had zero expectations for this impromptu itinerary switch because I assure you that this was not something that had ever been on any bucket list of mine.
But as our captain spotted whales and I sat on the side of the boat, bouncing happily along as the waves crashed all around me - and, I hung on for dear life - I took a moment to take IN the moment for what it was.
Something new.
Something different.
Something unexpected.
Something unasked for.
And, aren’t those the best kind of dreams come true?
The dreams we never even knew to dream of?
And, the wishes for which we never knew to wish?
In that moment, one of the 14 giant humpback whales we had seen proceeded to put on a show for us by leaping out of the water and flipping.
He was not only an entertainer. He was a show-off.
I squealed with glee - and, the sound was familiar to me.
It was the same sound I’ve made since I was a tiny girl when something utterly, deliciously delights and tickles me and my senses.
This is why I travel.
And, this is why I try to travel light - not in the form of suitcases (because y’all KNOW I pack heavy) - but in the form of expectations.
When you leave room in your proverbial suitcase of life while traveling, you leave space for memories to be made - ones that you never even could have imagined.
And, that’s way more delicious than even the sweetest sweet potato donut.
