Here is probably what I would have posted about had I actually gotten my booty in gear and been proactive about it:
- My trip to Puerto Rico and how cool it was. And everything I learned- about myself, about what it means to be a strong capable woman. About traveling with a babe in arms. About traffic laws and how they are optional in some places in the world. About the beauty and vastness of the Atlantic Ocean and how its beauty brings me to tears. About the feel of sand between my toes and what it means to really connect with the Earth. About what it means to spend quality time with people you love. About service. About bugs. About crabs and lizards. About limes. About cokey frogs. About *humidity*. About air conditioning and how much I will never ever ever be ungrateful for that invention. About HOT. About sisterhood and family. About my love and longing for my hubby back home. About making chocolate chip cookies, the awesomeness of the good kind of tortillas from Costco. About ICE WATER. About swimming and sun tan lines. About 5:45am. About culture, coconuts, cobblestone roads, fruit stands, avocados, Espanol, Old San Juan, Hard Rock Cafe, mangy dogs, palm trees, metric system, Abichuelas rojas y arroz, plantains, "Farting in your purse", and the worst titty twister EVER. I would have written all about those things and of course the loads and loads of wonderful times with Alicia and her two sweet toe head girls. And I would not have been able to leave out the joys of my travels home where I threw up TWICE on the airplane. Oh yes, wouldn't YOU have loved to be my neighbor on those flights!
The two week trip was spectacular and it was an honor to spend the time with people I love SO very much!
To paroose all 400-something pictures of the trip, go hereBe careful, don't waste too much time. They mostly are pics of Natalie with a pretty background.
You make my heart happy!!!

I wish I could've closed my eyes while reading that post...while in Omaha, I oft daydream that I am in other places. :) Now I have a new place to daydream about.
ReplyDeletePuerto Rico in a nut shell is better than nothing at all. Sounds incredible.
ReplyDeleteLooks even more incredible. I need to go there.
