ENJOYING THE CARIBBEAN AGAIN

Wanda and I drove to Ft. Lauderdale on Monday to catch a flight to San Juan, Puerto Rico, to see Jennifer, Javier, Claudia, and Lorenzo. When Wanda and I married, we both doubled the number of children and grandchildren. That makes seeing everyone during the holidays and for birthdays and special occasions challenging. We are blessed and enjoy every moment with every child and grandchild.

The weather is rainy but warm. We left the cold of Florida for the warmth and beauty of PR. I am looking out the window of the condo we are staying and soaking up the view. It is so relaxing here. We need it.

Jennifer has lived here over 12 years now. She has learned Spanish and the kids are bilingual too. I am so proud of Jennifer for the way she has adapted to life in another culture and with another language. She is a true pioneer.

This is a short trip and the goal is to relax with a capital R. That's the plan. I plan to make that happen.
