Sunday, February 25 (domingo, 25 de febrero)

What a beautiful day in the Caribbean today was here in Sosua. I took a long walk and here are the pictures I liked most. All were taken today.

A large bougainvilla bush with brilliant reddish-pink flowers.

The street vendor lady was selling all types of items for the ladies to use in their hair. Very colorful.

Sosua Bay today.

The sea was just gorgeous and the beach was crowded.

My buddy Helmuth. I ran into him just coming in from his bike ride. He told me he didn't go far today...just to Sabaneta and back. That is at least 15 miles one way. Not bad for a guy who just turned 67. Pretty incredible Helmuth.

Another flowering bush/tree that caught my eye.

I ran into Renato at Siempre Sol at the beach. Had lots of trouble getting a good picture of him since he was in the shade with lots of light behind him.

I have never encountered this lady in the street before. Very strange.

This guy was entertaining people at the beach. I think he is dressed for Carnaval.

Lots of tourists in town right now and the beach was crowded.

Another new massage parlor. None of them can rival Passions though.

I found this flower in the entryway to Villa Flor condominiums.

Selling rugs in the street.

The entrance to the beach.


A couple of gringas at the beach. I usually don't pay any attention to the gringas but these two made a good picture at the water's edge.
