some beach shots

From Puerto Rico, we took a 1 hour ferry ride to a smaller island called, Vieques....we stayed there for the night and the water was sooo blue. A really cool thing we did that I don't have any pictures of b/c they don't allow you to bring cameras....is the Bio Luminescent Bay. Translation: glow in the dark water! We took Tyler and Matthew and my siblings (grandparents stayed home with little ones) and we took kayaks out to the middle of a bay. When it got pitch dark, and the water is irritataed, it glows....to read a further description on why the water glows, check this out and this too for another pict. The boys loved it, and so did we! Another interesting note (so the locals say)....Vieques is the 3rd corner of the Bermuda Triangle....other points being Bermuda (of course) and Miami Florida.

More scenic picts to come....

ooh, too bad about the pics of the glowing water. I would have loved to have seen that! E was just looking at the pictures and can't believe how big Alyssa is. Woof, it's only been a year and they have grown soooo much!
