How I spent my summer...


I got an email today from Gordon title how I spent my summer - it got me thinking...

Let's see ...

Had another birthday. Ken bought me a motorcycle for my birthday - a Honda Shadow 750. It is sweet! It took me FOREVER to pass my riding test...I had never ridden a motorbike before - so it was definitely an adventure!

What else? We went to Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Puerto Rico was ok - we visited El Yunke and it was VERY crowded. Did not care for it all that much - especially after having been to the rain forests in Costa Rica. The best part was the Bio Luminescence bay in Viaques - that was absolutely magical. Old San Juan was the usual Central / South American / Spanish conquered city... Charming, but once you've seen a few of them...

The US Virgin Islands were pretty much a tourist trap. Every one just looks at you as a cash cow... It was very beautiful - but I wouldn't go back - ever!

So now we're back and the school starts this week for the kids... usual stuff.
