19Jan09

Traveling with friends can be so much fun. The group consisted of my two roomsates and me (Matt and Nathan) and Mariya from our ward.

Here are some pictures that i took while we were in Puerto Rico. We decided on that destination because leaving the country would involve a lot of paper work with the army and assure that i would have to use 4 vacation days. Instead, i actually used no vacation days! (i'm starting to learn the strategies)

Garcia Beach =)

This is Matt and I in a shallow dive






Some of my favorite moments of the trip were spent on top of the roof of our "guest house". We talked laughed, and watched the sun go down in 78 degree weather. It was beautiful.







Matt with a conch shell we found.
Ps, another highlight, as i was snorkeling back from this site, i found (in the sea grass) a $20.00 bill. It was a little worn out but the restaurant took it that night with no hesitation.

So, was that 20 bucks you found in your pocket? Cause the story you told was good enough that you didn't need to use the "story-saver." lol!

Looks like you guys had fun! :D

Yeah, the $20 was sweet! Everyone thought it was funny money, but when we examined it further....totally real. And good enough for dinner that night =)
