167: Turtles!!

Taken at the mercado in Rosarito in Baja California. Very sad that Cote d'Ivoire lost in World Cup today. What a game though! Very exciting, and it looked like the Dutch were on a roll, but les Elephants came back with a vengeance. Oh well, this is the excitement of World Cup!

166: HUGE Crab!

While on the southwest side of the island, we went diving. On the second dive, our divemaster showed us an undercave where there were lots of HUGE crabs camping out under there. My boyfriend took this shot, but the crabs sure looked like they would have made a yummy dinner!

165: Dive Bomb!

Some pelicans just outside of San Juan. There was a nice beach, but I made my boyfriend stop when I saw the pelicans. Bonus was that they were feeding as well so I got some great dive bomb shots!

163: Cabo San Rojo

Cabo San Rojo lighthouse. I experimen- ted a bit in photoshop with this picture to give it a slightly darker feel and really try and bring out the textures in the ground and the clouds. Hope you like it!

162: Dancing!



At one of the old forts in Old San Juan, once a week they put a demon- stration of of their traditional dances and music. It's lots of fun, and the dancers are very exuberant, and have beautiful costumes. These are a few that I took that I liked. They have live muscians as well, which is very neat. It included a singer, a Spanish guitar, a smaller guitar (I forgot the name) and one section also had live drummers.
