Puerto Rico
Jan. 10th, 2005 12:56 pmI went to Puerto Rico with my nuclear family for four days this past weekend. There aren't really stories to tell--we stayed in the Mariott in San Juan, and I sat by the pool, sat on the beach, and sat on the veranda; alternating napping, reading, and playing game boy.
I actually didn't go swimming, but the weather was at least partially to blame. It was only 80-85 degrees, and there was a lot of wind, so it seemed cooler. And there was a lot of sproadic rain and cloud cover on Friday and Saturday. But compared to the weather I heard NJ got this past weekend, it was indeed tropical paradise.
Overall, it was a nice break from routine, the weather was pleasant for lounging, I got a little color in my cheeks; I got through Wyrd Sisters, Shadow of the Hedgemon, a full play-through of Final Fantasy Legend 3 and a sizable chunk of Golden Sun. That, I think, is free time relaxingly spent.
And four days is just long enough for it to be a vacation, and just short enough that the members of my family don't kill each other.
