Summer Time
This months new banner is of Playa Mar Chiquita in Manati, that little speck in the water on the left hand side is my cousin Tony. He grew up in Manati and during his visit last October, we went to Mar Chiquita, re-visiting his childhood memories. Summer time reminds me of beaches. Going to the beach as a kid was the highlight of my summer. We went to Rockaway Beach in Queens, New York. We got there early to get the best spot and were the last to leave. I spent hours watching the seagulls, who were on a constant vigil for food left unattended. Located across the street was Rockaway Playland. On rare occasions there was enough money to go to playland and ride the bumper cars or the carousel. Oh, those were sweet memories. Now I live on a tropical island, where beaches are many, all a little different, all beautiful. Today is Beach day at the Asylum: Welcome to my world.
Crash Boat Beach, Aguadilla
Pinones Beach, Carolina
Cerro Gordo Beach, Vega Alta
Palmas Del Mar, Humacao
Rincon Beach, Rincon
Don't forget your sunscreen.

I envy you. I want to be at the beach right now. I want to smell the salt in the air and taste it on my glass. Margarita thoughts at 9 am. It's kind of nice.
Sweet beaches, ever walk them in the moonlight barefoot?
Nice!!! I wish I wasn't sitting in this cold office behind a desk right about now!
Susan, I love margaritas, more so on the beach at 9AM.
GP, of course, it's magical.
Paula, I'm wishing you warmth and a vacation real soon.
<-------------Jealous.
amadeo, at least now when you visit the island you'll know all the best spots.
Eslocura, how dare you tease us so! I need so badly to be there, like now!
wow, i was at Ocean City this weekend, which is kinda like Las Vegas with big fat people and their whiny kids. still, a beach is a beach. yours definitely look a little more better.
Tera,the kid in me made me tease you. kinda sorry but not really.
Lee, I photo shopped these photos to take the fat people and whiny kids in the background out.
Awed. Amazed.
What a beautiful place.
What do all you people have against fat people????

Kofi, thanks, it is indeed beautiful for many reasons.
Peter, I have nothing against fat people, I pretty much dislike all sorts of people, on any given day skinny people may be my target, jokes don't discriminate, we are all a target, any time, anywhere.
Peter,oops I forgot ... that family guy show sucks.
The pictures are awesome. We're so coming for a visit. Is New Year's good for you?
Hey, I'm from Juncos, PR and my parents now live in Caguas. I'm out there for my birthday weekend 8/3-8/6... hope you have a moment to see a brotha over by the Atlantic Beach Hotel in El Condado!
Tirala al medio comai'!!
HEY CUZ,
I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT TRIP,
THANK YOU
TLO
PS= THANKS FOR MAKING ME A STAR FOR A MONTH!!!!!!
Fringes, I've got the champagne chilling.
Blogger seems to be freaking, please know that I haven't deleted your comments and I have responded but blogger hates me right now.
Cocoa, welcome to the asylum and thanks for dropping by, que bueno que vas a pasar tiempo celebrando en la isla del encanto. Y oye que mucho jode esa comai.
Tlo, looking forward to your return con la familia. I'll be posting more about you in the future (don't worry, you'll get to read before hand) Because I am so very proud of the person you have become and that merits recognition on some level. Besos.
We checked the travel prices. Yikes! Maybe not for New Years. But we are coming. That time of year is at a premium. Keep the champagne chilling for a non-peak day!
Fringes, winter is "high season" in the tropics hence the crazy fares, but the champagne is chilling, I wonder if like wine, champagne gets better with age?
the only beaches i like are the empty ones.
beautiful pictures.
Heather, I agree, then again anytime I can avoid people it's a good thing.
Please, please, PLEASE Es L, let me in your world.
Will you accept me with my SPF 800?
Uno, dos, tres, for you I would supply the sunscreen. You are welcome anytime.
I want to go to the beach now...
Dad, don't forget the sunscreen. that tropical sun will burn ya.
