A passel of Puerto Ricans! The kids belonging to a fun group of Puerto Ricans we met and spent the day with at the swimming hole!
the Swimming Hole

80s and sunny!
This was the best part of Salinas (at least for ML). A safe anchorage only a mile or so away from the conveniences of Salinas with clear, swimmable, snorkelable water. Over the course of the summer, we regularly saw there schools of spotted eagle rays, cuttlefish all in a row, octopus, lobsters, a jawfish dubbed "Fishy in the Hole" and southern sting rays. On top of that, the vacationing/weekending Puerto Ricans would come out and drink and eat and splash around and drop all sorts of goodies, which we would collect the next morning. Whatever wasn't trash, we dubbed "Bling" and ranged from dinghy anchors to t-shirts to cold, hard cash!
I just loved this place, on so many different levels!

In the rainforest!

After postponing their visit by a week due to a hurricane threat, Mom and Dad and Chris and I did a hike to the "rain"forest where it was a beautiful day with no rain!
