Angel with the family in San Juan

November 23, 2012 · Vacation · with Mom & Dad + family

Back of the photo: The whole clan on the island — Mom, Dad, aunts, uncles, the little cousins. El Morro in the afternoon sun, piraguas in the plaza, cream-cheese pastelillos from a bakery counter, and a villa down the road from a lighthouse. The captions I wrote at the time say it best: “me being domesticated and shit,” “My beautiful momma,” “Love this photo.” First time back as an adult — the Menendez side of the map.

From the gram: Summary of day one! Do I have to come home?

From the gram: About to have a pina colada with tio!

From the gram: Puerto Rico baby! I’m about to go surfing! This place is amazing!
