Caving with Katrina, Jeff and friends

We arrived late Saturday night/ Sunday morning in Aguadilla and drove to Katrina and Jeff’s house in San German arriving around 2:30 in the morning because of a small delay. They had said they were planning a cave that next day and we were welcome to stay at their house or go with them. We said we’d go as long as they weren’t leaving too early. We had a great day out hiking through the jungle of someone’s property and then exploring a couple of parts to a cave. I am not sure what they call this cave, but it was just the right cave for both of us who are novice cavers. Here are a few pictures!

We saw lots of crazy, creepy things in the caves like neat formations and lots of bugs, bats, rats, and toads. Definitely not a good place to bring the easily scared. 🙂 We were good with everything except the bats flying by our heads almost hitting us! Check out how many there were!

At the Airport

We have started our journey.  We are just about to board the plane and fly to Newark. 

Long day of traveling ahead of us!  Follow along for the next few weeks, we will update as much as we can.

Getting Ready to Go to Puerto Rico!

Well we are within a week of our departure. We are getting everything taken care of that we need to so we can be gone for a few weeks in Puerto Rico!

We need to pack for swimming, caving, house closing, hanging out, hiking our 4 acres, going out to restaurants, repairing / fixing the house, rain, sun and of course the unknown of which there are many in Puerto Rico.

We need to make sure our animals are taken care of. In preparation for this we got a mega feeder and a mega waterer for the chickens (all 6 now).


5 gallons of water                                                15lbs of feed

We figure that should make it easier for us to take care of them all the time, and pretty easy for someone to chicken sit while we are away (hey, free eggs! Thanks Charlotte).

We’ve been listening to more reggae lately, I guess it’s part of the whole tropical theme..lol.  I am not much for reggaeton scene yet, but some of it I do like.  We also really enjoy old salsa music (oye Hector!).

It’s coming up quick! In less than one week, we’ll be in Puerto Rico ready to close on our house!
