Pena Blanca, Rincon Marina, Dome’s Wings and More


Fun times with the boy

My how time flies differently with a kid! We have been having fun trying to go out to various beaches especially now that it is the hot summertime. We have been to Pena Blanca before (a long while ago), but we took a little dip. I would like to bring the snorkel gear as I have heard it’s pretty nice. We went down the stairs and tucked ourselves in under the cave as the swallow birds flew about. Aeden loves, loves the water. I can’t wait to teach him to swim.


The water is so crystal blue and clear!


Recently painted and cool cave area


Family time!


I love this little stairway area. It’s a bit hard to trek especially with people coming from both directions

We also have spent a little time at the Rincon Marina. I call the Marina the “social beach” of Rincon because there is always something going on. Boats comically entering the water (sometimes hitched to a car), the newest gadgets are tried out (motor surfboards, jet skis, water jet packs, etc), there is people watching galore. But now that the “season” is over, it has been a nice, tranquil place to hang out on a weekday or celebrate a birthday.


Happy birthday, Amanda!


Doing things with a baby does make life a little more complicated, but it can be done haha


Me and my sweet waterbaby


And with his daddy


Another blissful moment at the Marina


Don’t worry, I didn’t toss him that high


This kid has such a fun life already!


Flamboyans are back!


My little love and I shared a swing ride at Dome’s Beach


This art installment was made by a local woman named Luisa Acevedo. I love it!


We’ve enjoyed going to the San Sebastian Pulguero most Fridays-with friends Bronia and Andrew

There’s no feeling quite like having a cranky kid trust you so much he falls asleep literally in your arms (it also feels quite heavy to walk like this very far haha)


No wonder he sleeps so well!

Britton’s Surprise Birthday Party and Dome’s Beach Trail


With some friends

We always have fun going out and about as well as staying in at the property, but for Britton’s birthday we had a little something different in mind. A surprise! Our neighbors Kim, Anthony and Lamar and I helped plan a surprise birthday party just up the street and it was so much fun! Britton had no idea when we stopped in to say hello before our planned beach outing that there was a party there just for him. We had a great time and love our neighborhood and friends.


Surprise!
Anthony, Kim and the birthday boy


A make-your-own pizza party and homemade carrot cake! The best!


Fun times, good food and great friends

We had to whisper the Happy Birthday song because Aeden was starting to fall asleep. In Puerto Rico you can sing the English version of “Happy Birthday to You” or the Spanglishized version “Cumpleaños Feliz” but you should always add this song after:

Feliz, feliz en tu día
Amiguit@ que Dios te bendiga
Que reine la paz en tu vida
Y que cumplas muchos más

It translates to: Such happiness on your day, my friend we hope God blesses you, that peace reigns in your life and that you celebrate many more birthdays!


We did have one little party pooper there though 🙂

We didn’t miss out on celebrating Britton’s birthday his expected way as well though. Taking a nice walk down one our favorite trails in Rincon following the Spanish Wall by Dome’s Beach is one of his favorite things so we made sure to do that as well.

Such a cool trail!


Out enjoying our beautiful town of Rincon


Dome’s Beach is named for this, well, dome -the non-working nuclear reactor plant


It’s a favorite beach for surfers


And a good place to hang a hammock


Spanish Wall was formerly a railroad used by the sugar cane industry

Happy Family
