Not counting our quick Florida trip about 4 years ago, this is our first REAL vacation since our honeymoon. Mike & I were planning on a cruise paid for by his company, however, that was cancelled and this was a quickly booked replacement - for the better:)
We came in yesterday afternoon and are here through Friday. The timing was tricky because its the start of semester 2 for me at work - a super busy week, and Mike is still covering 2 territories at work, however, we needed this break - some time alone. My mom is watching the kids and Bailey - boy I hope she gets some relief - as Timmy. Laura, Dan & Alison are planning to spend some time with them as well.
We have already consumed much alcohol, as my dad set us up with 2 full water bottles filled with Vodka & Jack Daniels - they made it here - he wrapped and tested them very nicely - THANKS DAD!
We have been lounging by the pool and eating a whole lot (definitely need to go back on WW strictly) - one of the highlights is a burger place a few blocks from the hotel on the beach, the other was in Old San Juan last night at Raices - where we ate Mofongos - plantains with chicken for me, and a mix of shrimp and mahi mahi for Mike. Delicious.
Great time so far - we miss our Queen Alexandra, as she is going to probably be walking either when we get home or shortly after; and of course, Michael G - who looks like he is giving my mom a run for her money:) We face time them from the iphone to my moms iphone - what a great thing it is to see them and for them to see us!
We will post more pics of this beautiful place soon!
