Day 15 – Part 2 – The Gyre Still Turns

& posted in Uncategorized

In Puerto Rico, our groups are enjoying their penultimate day together in fine form. Mike, Annie and their group are enjoying a final day of hiking in El Yunque. They sent in the first shot of several of their lads taking in the scenery from the Yokahu Tower in the rainforest. Alex, Lidia and Co. spent their day surfing with Ramses near Rincon. See the second shot below. Lidia reported that everyone was able to get up — and that Ramses thought Lauren was so good, she should consider going pro. Not bad for a first day. Both groups will converge on Old San Juan tomorrow for a final day of exploration before saying goodbye on Monday.

Confessions are due, Dear Reader. Apogee, bastion of clean living, sentinel of energy efficiency, bard of green things (I’m running out of ideas here…), has plugged in. The air conditioner is sitting in the window. And you know what? It’s great. It’s wonderful.
