So I get a call around 11:00 PM one night and it's Ozzy. He say's "Hey, you wanna go to Mexico tomorrow?". Of course I said yes. I had been hearing about this trip for a while and it sounded like a lot of fun. Wakeboarding all day and partying all night in Mazatlan. I just had to pretend to be a photographer for Wakeboarder Magazine. I figured I could pull that off...I actually did shoot for a wakeboarding magazine at one time. Well, the first clue that this would be "one of those" trips was the fact that we only had one way tickets...no return tickets! In hindsight it seems like a really novel approach to kidnapping...just send the silly Americans tickets and fill thier heads with images of tequila soaked senioritas and they will come! We went, we had fun, we made friends, we drank, we almost died, and our return tickets were finally bought...on the way to the airport to go back! All in all it was a great trip and I would love to go back. BTW...we never made it to Mazatlan, the city we were in is known mainly for it's drug trafficing and we were the only Americans seen all week.
