Snow in Boston

We took a little day-trip to Boston, to enjoy the cold snowy weather. We ate at an Indian restaurant, then had tea in a Japanese tea-shop (hot sweet, milky tea, with boba), and we finished off with a very nice snack in a middle-eastern place.

Raluca's 34th

A very fun get-together at Raluca & Ed's house, with Sena and Aiyana, Marcia, Andy, Constanta, Dianne, and us. Marcia had to drive us there, through the snow.


Sena and Andy, playing nicely.


3 generations of Mocanus.


Sena, Aiyana, and Raluca.


Constanta and Aiyana.


Constanta and Roxi.


Marcia and Raluca were watching the kids play, but Ed was struggling to stay awake....


... but Sena (and Andy) had lots of energy.


We then went home and shoveled, with Barkly.

Puerto Rico

Ricardo was sent to Puerto Rico for 10 days, for work. Of course, Roxana went to spend the weekend, and enjoy walking in shorts & t-shirts in February!

The next few pictures are from El Yunque, a rain forest South-East of San Juan.


Us at a tower, on the way to the Yunque peak.


The view from the same tower.


More of the coast.


One of many geckos.


Roxi.


The next day we went to Luquillo beach, where Ricardo got a sunburn, like a tourist.

The beach...


Testing the waters.


After Roxana left (snif, snif), all I had left (other than work) was to take pictures of the local areas.

This is the central square in Isabela, in the North-West portion of the island.
