So have you ever seen those Chevy Chase Vacation movies…this trip felt like one of those movies!!  I called it our “comedy of errors” trip!  If it could go wrong…it did!  Luckily we were in a beautiful setting, wearing either a swim suit or shorts and sandals.  Luckily too that most of the time we had a sense of humor and there were moments of bliss interspersed in all the chaos!

(At San Cristobal Fort, Old San Juan)

Spencer and Josey experienced the ocean for the first time…what fun!  Check out the video of Spencer playing in the waves…he LOVED it!  He really loved digging and playing in the sand.  He also loved the FREE-dom he had with minimal rules and no bedtime.  Josey did not love riding in the car…in fact, she threw-up twice in the brand new rental car.  She loved the ocean as long as the waves didn’t spash her in the face and on one outing she even fell asleep in her floaty on my shoulder.  They both traveled so well considering we spend a lot of time on planes and in cars.  They were troopers!

The two days we spent at the Villas were my favorite days of the trip!  After the day before spending 6 1/2 hours in a car driving 90 miles across the island to Rincon, we passed up spending  more hours on a boat scuba diving to be lazy and play on the beach and in the ocean with our kids…it being Spencer’s first ocean experience!  Those moments were the BEST of the trip.
