First Day of Summer… Finally!

We’ve all been patiently (or for some of us who’ve been studying our brains out for the past 9 months, impatiently) awaiting summer, and guess what? It’s finally here! I’m ready to hit the beach… how’s about you? I can tell by the look in your eyes that you need some fun in the sun, and luckily Kijubi has plenty of that.

For all you radical L.A. dudes and dudettes who’ve wanted to learn to surf since you saw The Endless Summer, handle it already with a few surf lessons in Santa Monica. Now is the time to learn, especially since the world might come to an end on October 21st (Kijubi is not to be held liable for such predictions). You don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to heavily increase your level of coolness by knowing how to shred those gnar gnar waves, bro.

Looking for a weekend getaway that won’t require you to pull from the kids’ college fund? Escape to Catalina Island via the Catalina Express from Dana Point and Long Beach, or Catalina Flyer from Newport Beach. Once there, you’ll be overwhelmed by the number of things to do, both thrilling and relaxing. As a friend of the Kijubi family, please take our advice and snorkel the insanely beautiful waters of Lover’s Cove in Avalon. We offer a 2 hour snorkel tour where the first hour is guided and the second is not, so you have a chance to explore on your own. Do it… please. It’s for your own good.

Holler at our East Coast family! Must feel good to finally let the scarves loose, peel off the peacoats and kick off the boots. It’s time to pull out the sunglasses, tank tops and flip flops and relax on a yacht in the Atlantic whilst sipping champagne and reading a good book. If you’re in or around New York, I highly recommend booking one of our dining or sightseeing cruises – there’s plenty to choose from!

We’ve got thousands more fun, summer activities all over the world that I’d love to share with you, but there’s really not enough time in the day and I should get back to work. To be continued!

Mother's Day is Just Around the Corner!

So for all you mothers out there, I’m sure you’re excited to be treated like a queen next Sunday, and for everyone else, you’re probably still thinking about what to do! It really is just around the corner, so you better come up with something good. After all, our mothers brought us into this world, and while they deserve to be treated like queens every single day, they definitely deserve something truly special and unique on their day.

While some moms are physically active and enjoy getting out there and doing something fun and outdoorsy, others just want to relax and be pampered on their special day. Both sound absolutely fun and fabulous! One thing I would suggest is maybe not taking her out to dinner. That’s one of the most common and expected things you can do, which is why it’s one of the busiest, money-making days of the year for restaurants. There are so many other fun and unique ways to say I Love You to your momma. In fact, I found an interesting blog with several cute and affordable ideas for Mother’s Day gifts.

Aside from giving gifts, take your mom out for the day and do something fun. We live in Southern California, for crying out loud, so why not take her out on a duffy boat or maybe a sailboat. It’s so relaxing, but at the same time, it’s exciting and a great idea for the whole family to enjoy. I know my mom would absolutely love going out on a boat because she’s never really been on one before.

Another idea is a brunch or dinner cruise, which we offer in Newport Beach, Marina del Rey and San Diego. Although a less intimate setting than a duffy boat or sailboat charter, brunch and dinner cruises are fun and come with an amazing, gourmet meal and beverages.

If your mom has a serious case of seasickness, take her up on a hot air balloon ride over Southern California’s wine country, Temecula Valley. How fun would it be to go ballooning and then wine tasting afterwards?!? Sounds like a fabulous day to me!

For the more adventurous mothers, get out and ride some jet skis around the harbor or out in the ocean. Although it’s still springtime, the weather is heating up and it’s the perfect time to start getting out in and on the water. Let your mom shine and show off her skills by ripping it up on a jet ski or waverunner. What a blast!

Whatever you decide to do, make it a special day that your mom will never forget. Give her something unique and surprise her by taking her out to do something she’s never done and would never expect. Taking her out to dinner and giving her flowers is special, but very common. Moms, expect the unexpected this year. You deserve to have a unique and memorable experience with your loved ones. You are all so wonderful and we love and appreciate you unconditionally. Thank you for being you.
