    You should work for Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce. I’ve never been but now want to go! Flying that area looks like a great time. Thanks for sharing!

    Thank you, y gracias, Rafael. A beautiful start to the weekend – can water really be those colors? – and a reminder of Puerto Rico’s positives as it faces its current challenges. Happy and safe flying!
