Morning!

Figured I’d start sharing my Puerto Rico pics. Will be setting up a gallery for them all, but it’s not ready yet. These are all phone camera pics. The gillion others were with my camera. So expect all sorts of photography mayhem soon.

Heh heh heh

Puerto Rico – a property of the US. Only need a drivers license to go there. Currency is the US Dollar. Main language is Spanish.

Amazing skies. Clouds are the main thing you miss when you move away from PR.

He has a set of  Hibiscus bushes as a partial fence.

I love the flowers from these bushes. Always make me think of home.

Pano at El Morro. Spanish fort in San Juan. All the pink shirts are students on a field trip.

These are Quenepas. I’d not had some in 20 years! Last two times I’d made it home, they’ve not been in season. Ran across some when we went south. YAY! You bite the green to peel off the top. Then you use the bottom half as a cup. The fruit strands are stuck to a large seed. You put it in your mouth and suck off the strands. So good!

More torture to come later. 🙂
