We have been enjoying the island even more since we returned from our trip to Colorado. Nothing like a trip off the rock to help you appreciate our tropical island home even more.
For my birthday this year we stopped by one of my favorite resorts: Villa Montana in Isabela/Aguadilla. I like how it is tucked away and not too “posh” that we can drive in with our truck or old Mustang and not feel like a hillbilly as we did at Royal Isabela. There was hardly anyone there and so we had one of the pools to ourselves and Aeden just loved it. We ordered a pizza and walked along the beach. It was a very chill time, especially considering how hot it’s been!
With Aeden down the beach
On the drive to Isabela we stopped at this windy coconut farm
And at a coconut tree!
The beach is so interesting to a baby!
We have been enjoying our trips to the Pulgueros around the island -these are delicious mangosteens
Our friend John Grady died recently and we went to his memorial at the Rincon Marina
Orchids in bloom -I am starting to get into orchids more around the property!
And we continue to expand the trails to the gardens
Fun at Steps Beach (Aeden got sand EVERYWHERE!)
Our little sidekick won’t be in our arms for long- he is raring to go walk!
Quick stop at Hacienda La Fe in San Sebastian and old coffee/sugar plantation turned museum/park
At La Fe’s kids’ park Aeden got a ride in a swing
Fun scenes around the island and with friend Daisy
With my friend Jessika and her little boy who is close to Aeden’s age
At Indicator’s in Rincon
Lots and lots of mowing this time of year!
And bugs! Yes, this greeted me in the shower! haha Life in the jungle!
Our little monkey with silly faces
Even loves bananas and swinging!
Here’s Aeden’s update video. He has really grown a lot!
