Puerto Rico Day 1








After Christmas this year, the whole Clark family headed to Puerto Rico for a little sun and adventure. Ryan lived there a few years ago so he was a pretty good tour guide. To start our trip off Nana, Papa, Sean, Tanner, Matt, Kate, and Averi got delayed in Columbus and weren't able to fly until much later. So, Ryan and I met Nic, Steff, Kendyl, Camryn, and Brooklyn in the airport in San Juan. It was adventure enough just getting our rental cars and finding our way to our house, but in the middle of downtown San Juan on the free way I got a text from Steff, who was behind us in the 14 passenger van, that their brakes and power steering had gone out. Thank heavens they were able to get safely off the freeway and coast into a gas station parking lot! Apparently these belts are supposed to be connected somewhere!! Who knew!

The next day we had wonderful weather and our house was right on the beach, so we spent the morning hanging out and playing on the beach. Here's Sean and Matt.

Nic, Steff, and Kendyl.
Now before I go any further I must say that Steff, Kate and I are all pregnant, so please keep your judgements to a minimum. I'm due April 12, Steff May25 and Kate June 15
(I think these are correct dates, I may be a little off)




Brooklyn played with this coconut all day long throwing it in the ocean and laughing when the tide brought it back up. It was so fun to play with all the little girls on the beach.

Me and Camryn building one of many sandcastles.



Later that day we headed to Old San Juan to see the old Spanish forts. This one is call El Morro.


Cutest little girls in the whole world.




Later we wandered around Old San Juan to try to find some where to eat dinner. We found the cutest little pizza place in a plaza with all these cool Christmas lights (Mel was then on a mission to try and find the same lights to take home)
This was New Years Eve. In the town square they had fake snow blowers and fire works going off.

Later back at the Clark villa, the party got WILD!!

Not really, I guess as wild as a family of Mormons including 3 pregnant women and 4 little girls can get!

Brace yourselves, this is only day 1!
