Yep, I Love Puerto Rico!

So many reasons I think Puerto Rico is fabulous. Here are just a few.
As a girl who loves rain, Puerto Rico hit the spot!
PR has the best rain storms. They are beautiful and powerful!We were able to enjoy some of PR's beauties as a family.Showing the girls some of what this world has to offer was fantastic.
I think it is fabulous that I got to have a lime tree out my kitchen window.
I love that we learned to make real lime-ade.
I am thrilled that the girls were able to find adventures everywhere.Aquacates
The avacados are HUGE and delicious in PR. You could buy them for $1 from the vendors in the middle of the street.
And truthfully my most favorite thing about Puerto Rico is probably the driving. It stresseed Mike out, but I loved it. The first few weeks adjusting to the crazy drivers was rough but once I threw the rule book out the window, I was in heaven! The deal is, traffic laws are only enforced on the base and my personal favorite is that many stop lights are optional. This is a picture of the light turning into Camino (where we live) notice the light is red... no worries I went anyway.
No picture for this, but I love PR spanish!
Makes me laugh just thinking about Gracia & Buen Dia...

I love that Becky & Holly came to share our adventure and know first hand what I am talking about. I am so grateful that we had this chance to enjoy such a beautiful island. It had rough moments, but an awesome once in a lifetime opportunity! We are grateful!!! ADIOS

Yes, I love the driving too, especially because I usually don't have time for red lights! Hope all is well is Sacramento :)
