So I came to see what you're up to and have enjoyed my catch up on a few posts.<br />I particularly enjoyed this post. What a treat. I love the colours and stitching in the previous post and am gad to see you are still producing inspiring stuff.

We traveled all over the island to see the amazing places it has to offer, learned to scuba dive, snorkel and sail. The people were friendly, the culture rich, and we have so many wonderful memories of our time there. Thanks for sharing your vacation with us.

We stayed in a great rental - but summer was much more crowded and busy than we expected (not to mention hot). <br /><br />I could have said just what you did about the contrasts of beauty with some real poverty. We had random dogs visit us every day, too! <br /><br />I think the best thing we did was the rainforest hike at El Yunque and the bioluminesense trip. Also, our kids caught coqui frogs every night - which was all they had really wanted to do! <br /><br />Your pictures take me back!beth https://www.blogger.com/profile/02782749074922119961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056845113261377115.post-84468092930969642112012-02-15T08:04:44.163-05:002012-02-15T08:04:44.163-05:00ah, vic, how refreshing! the sea glass is beautifu...ah, vic, how refreshing! the sea glass is beautiful. looks like there was so much colorful inspiration. glad you had the chance to go :)Erin @ Why Not Sew?

I'm so glad that you removed the (pretty) human debris from the beaches (a.k.a. sea glass), but it's always a good idea to leave sea shells exactly where you find them (they make the sand, and hermit crabs use them as homes!). <br /><br />Thanks for sharing the trip with us with these beautiful photos -- the memories will last!Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889377273834067053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056845113261377115.post-92092040232627495882012-02-14T15:31:44.099-05:002012-02-14T15:31:44.099-05:00How totally beautiful!
