Quite adjusted....I think

So much has happened since I last wrote. Getting used to the city life, traffic, noise...lol. Lots of exciting experiences in the last few weeks!

Some of the highlights:

Took a trip to Puerto Rico the end of March and did some awesome things; visited the Observatory in Arecibo, went to El Yunque (Rainforest) and bathed by one of the waterfalls, took a boatride to Vieques and swam in Mosquito Bay at night with the glowing micros, visited Luquillo Beach, and ate and ate and ate and ate a lot...lol. I also got to visit my favorite aunt in the San Juan area for a bit. Also took a daytrip to NY and got to go up the Empire State Building and also saw the Broadway show Memphis, which had great music and dancing!

In the city, went to visit my favorite Jazz place again and got to hear some awesome blues singing. Visited the R2L Restaurant, which has an incredible view of the sunset and city from the 37th floor. Visited the Philadelphia Museum of Art and The Natural Science Museum, both have some great exhibits. We also have been doing a lot of walking around the city. Now that the weather is getting milder, we'll be spending more time outdoors.

The city has a lot of great events going on right now, The Festival of the Arts, The Science Festival, Fairmount Arts Crawl, Book Festival.....lots to see and do. Busy week ahead.
