Our flight home on Tuesday was not until 3 pm so I planned on making full use of my time. I was up early and organized my clothes before heading down to the fitness center right at 6 am when it opened to do a hard one-hour on the lifecycle. I watched an episode ofContinue reading “Puerto Rico: Day 5 of 5”

Puerto Rico: Day 4 of 5
Good morning. It is 8:30 am on Monday 3/25. An almost balmy 26 degrees now! It is sunny and the weather app says it will pass 55 today. But, wary of black ice, I ran indoors today. I’ve exercised every day since returning from PR except for the one day I worked last week. IContinue reading “Puerto Rico: Day 4 of 5”
Puerto Rico: Day 3 of 5
I’ve fallen a little behind but am hoping to get all 5 days done by Tuesday (a week after the trip ended). It is 11 am now on Sunday 3/24. Yesterday I had a 3-hour USMS stroke seminar (only 50 minutes of actual swimming/kicking, at 90 minutes in we were all getting hypothermic so theyContinue reading “Puerto Rico: Day 3 of 5”
Puerto Rico: Day 2 of 5
As this was a “tag along” vacation I had been very lazy in learning anything about PR before the trip. Usually, I do a lot of reading and planning in preparation for my travels. I often try to not just read a travel guide but load some novels featuring the location onto my Kindle. LastContinue reading “Puerto Rico: Day 2 of 5”
Puerto Rico: Day 1 of 5
Hi faithful readers! I returned from PR at midnight Tuesday and ALMOST started writing my travel blog less than 24 hours later. But… the kid was home for spring break (a pleasant surprise as I thought I would completely miss their visit home) and yesterday was Fifa’s 9th birthday so … no blogging time. AlexContinue reading “Puerto Rico: Day 1 of 5”

A NYC state of mind (Jan 10-13)
Argh… it has been almost two weeks since my 2023 “wrap-up” blog entry. I belatedly got that done as I knew I couldn’t do my “Travel blog” about NYC until last year was out of the way! I had foolishly believed that I would be able to do the NYC post that same day orContinue reading “A NYC state of mind (Jan 10-13)”

Back in Boca! December 10-13.
After my week in Honduras ðŸ‡ðŸ‡³ I had scheduled a few days in Boca with my Mom. If I had known in advance about Roatan I think I would have gone there for a few days of snorkeling and beach relaxation. It is one of Honduras’ bay islands and an actual Caribbean resort, safe toContinue reading “Back in Boca! December 10-13.”
