Train to Win Winter Olympic Medals in Hawaii

Some of my twitter pals (PamChun, NathanKam, and BuzzBunny) were tweeting about this cool Visa ad with a Hawaii connection. So, I had to share it with you. Guess where ski goddess and Winter Olympic silver medal winner Julia Mancuso goes to train in the summer? Would you believe Hawaii? Yep, she goes there to surf, kite board, and hike. I can see how all those activities would help with skiing skills.

Hmm…could this mean that if we go to Hawaii for surfing and hiking, we could become Olympic medalists? 😉
