A great mini-holiday away in SJ and still gentle buzzing from seeing Elton John with friends from St. John who made it all possible. Nope, no pics and no reason but my personal preference to not be flashing lights in my seatmates eyes or be distracted from what was an amazing show.
The weather in SJ was pure pretty with some rain on Sunday (Mother Nature's way of saying, C'mon kids, time to go home).
I'd given an extra good watering before leaving on Friday and hoped that with the ground water plus that that the gardens would be all right. They looked great! So this morning I got up to water more, and as soon as I came inside it started pouring like mad, which the sky did NOT look like it was holding. According to to the radar, it's a small cell...but who konws? It's only a bit of a fat dribble now, with that yellow light all around....
The big city was a fun place to be, especially with good friends and a focus for time there...we ate at one fantastic restaurant in Old SJ, and found a funky Mexican restaurant above the beach in the new area. Found one of my favorite Asian markets that is actually a chain I had no idea was in PR. Tossed away some bucks in the casino and gawked (ok, I gawked) at the buildings, both purely ugly and purely charming.
But, as Dorothy said (while I can't understand a longing for cornfields, I get the heart part), there's no place like home.
Ah, the sun! Perfect. Again.
