¡Nuestro vacación puertorriqueño!

We got back from Puerto Rico last night at around 6:00. It wasn't long enough, but other than that, it was a terrific vacation! P.R. has a lot going on for an island that's only 100 miles long and 30 miles wide, and we saw a little bit of everything: We spent some time in big cities and we spent some time in small towns and rural villages. We laid on the beach a bit, but also explored the mountains. We hiked through the tropical rain forest and drove through the almost desert-like area on the south coast.

Our itinerary was as follows:
- Friday and Saturday night we stayed on the east coast, near Yabucoa.
- Sunday night: The Spanish colonial city of Ponce.
- Monday night: The west coast town of Rincón.
- Tuesday night: San Juan (P.R.'s largest, and America's oldest city).

I have much to say about this trip and lots of pictures to share. So much so that I can't possibly put a decent post together in one evening without staying up all night, so the real post will have to wait until this weekend.

Happy 2008

This is the first post of 2008.  First of all, we wish everyone a late but warm "happy 2008".

Like 2007, we will continue to be a pair of world travelers. We've just planned our first 2008 trip to Puerto Rico. We will set off in less than 2 weeks. Dave is teaching me some simple expressions in Spanish. Depending on where the exchange rate goes, we might make one or two international trips. Compared with Europe, Canada is still relatively cheap to go. Since the U.S. is such a big country, there are a lot of places we'd like visit, such as Lake Tahoe. Later this year (probably around November), we will make a trip back to China to visit my family. I am sure Dave has plan for himself. For myself, I will continue to take dancing classes. Now I am learning Modern dance. I am taking a drawing class, too.

Happy 2008!
