Vieques, PR - Arrival

We arrived! You might ask how Lyla did on the flight...instead of giving the pilot a round of applause - Lyla got a round of applause from those around her...no literally! Lyla was told by many that she was the best baby they have ever seen on a flight and Michael and I even got a couple compliments for a job well done - haha :) Go Lyla Go!!! Thanks to your laid back demeanor we all survived the 5 hour flight. We landed in San Juan with one flight to go. Check out our 10 passenger island-hopper we had to take from San Juan to Vieques Island. Oh dear....

Michael was put on another plane - Grandma and DD were put in the front of our plane - so it was up to me - way in the back to keep Lyla entertained in very tight corners!

But she didn't need my help - she found plenty to do!

Oh I forgot something - check out Lyla sleeping on our laps on the big plane to San Juan. Lyla can sleep anywhere - more on that to come...

Lyla is very independent these days...of course she had to wheel her own luggage just like everyone around her!

Here is "Cookie's Paradise" our home for the week...not to shabby. We arrived when it was dark so let's just say we were very pleasantly surprised to see our surroundinsg in daylight.

After ordering pizza the night of our arrival and going to the cornerstore for some liquids - we are checked in for a good nights sleep. We had every intention of getting up early to explore "our" island for the week. The next morning we headed to the town of Esperenza to have a look around and get some food.

We discovered Trade Winds - breakfast with a view - no complaints!

The real adventure starts now...coming right up are several post that I have decided to categorize...here we go :)
