Puerto Rico Chronicle: Beach Paradise

Today is New YEARS DAY 2014 and we went to the beach in Luqullo.  I drove past the Rainforest for the first time.  It looked so well "rainy" and I can't wait to visit it someone day soon.

The beaches in Puerto Rico are amazing, beautiful, and vibrant.  I just didn't go to the beach enough last year.  Someone told me they make an effort to go to the beach each month just to escape the craziness Metro-life can bring. Now, I completely understand the truthfulness.

I LOVE LOVE the beach!  The salty, sandy water is cleansing and refreshing to my skin.  Every part of me relaxes and rejoices once my toes hit the sand.  Lately, the colors layers in the ocean have been mystical and enchanting to me.  I can stare out in the ocean, listen to waves, and love exactly where I am and what I am doing.

The Beach is my medicine!! :) What I love most about going to the beach in Puerto Rico. We don't pack a lot because we don't need to stay all day. Going to the beach for a couple of hours is plenty for us.  We have no reason to stay out and get burnt, dehydrated, or exhausted. 1-2 hours is plenty for my growing family. Knowing we can come back any day we want to makes beach time simple and special.

We usually go to the beach only in swimsuits and lately all we do is jump in the van after rinsing off and take our swim trunks off and put on little boy undies for the ride home! Everyone is comfy, relaxed, and ready for a peaceful night.

I miss the beach already!! :)
