Puerto Rico 2012

Puerto Rico
Well after living in a "furnished" apartment for 7 weeks with all our stuff in a POD we were ready to get away and to let our lease go. The furnishings weren't so posh to say the least and we saw at least 2 people being led away in handcuffs - Time to move on. Since our lease was up Thanksgiving week we didn't want to crash on anyone's Thanksgiving so we first went to Atlanta to look for a place to live and then to Puerto Rico. It was a great place to spend the week and nice to be a bit pampered before Adam headed back for his last days at Garmin. The weather was wonderful with sun every morning and rain in the afternoon with huge puffy clouds after the rain. 






This was in the afternoon..... 





....evening....






....and night - dinner at the hotel.






The next morning this is what we woke up to - Not too bad at all, we loved it actually!!


Christmas decorations were already out at the hotel. Complete with feathery trees.






82 degrees almost all day long made for wonderful night time swims.

The weather also allowed for some fascinating trips to the old city. We loved the colors and the fort that really appeared untouched after all these years. (http://www.nps.gov/saju/index.htm)

 So many colors and fountains!

Our last full day did not disappoint with all of the beach being drenched in sunshine, wonderful sunshine!
We spent Thanksgiving at a local tapas bar. We had so many things to be thankful for; our house selling, Adams job and school opportunity in Atlanta, Family, friends and the creation we were surrounded by. It was such a blessing to be able to enjoy! We were thankful for Puerto Rico and hope to go back again! (soon?)
