Ocean Park in Condado? Indeed! They have night time there, similar to most other parts of the world. It’s worth a visit. Swear, swear :)

¿Ocean Park en Condado? ¡De hecho! Tienen tiempo nocturno allí, similar a la mayoría de las otras partes del mundo. Merece la pena una visita. Jura, jura :)
Nighttime view of a palm-lined beach in San Juan, Puerto Rico, with artificial lighting illuminating sand and people in the foreground, and city lights and buildings glowing along the shoreline in the distance. • Zona: Condado / Ocean Park • Municipio: San Juan • Región: Área Metro, Puerto Rico • Puntos cercanos: • Parque del Indio (detrás de las palmas) • Calle Loíza (zona popular de comida y vida nocturna) • Hoteles y residencias de Condado y Ocean Park Fotografía nocturna con alto contraste tomada desde la playa del Parque del Indio en San Juan, Puerto Rico. Se observan palmas, personas y focos que iluminan intensamente la arena, mientras al fondo brillan los edificios de Condado frente al mar. Las olas del Atlántico reflejan la luz lejana de la ciudad, capturando la esencia entre la calma tropical y el ritmo urbano de la isla.

Nos encanta :) Fountains, fountains everywhere, sending water up into the air. This one isn’t at the moment, so enjoy the palm trees and flowers, and if you go a little further, there’s an amazing view of the sea.

“Puerto Rico has Walmart?”
Yep. A lot of them :)
A man pushes a shopping cart outside the “Hogar y Farmacia” entrance of Walmart Supercenter in Humacao, Puerto Rico, on a sunny day with blue skies, palm trees, and scattered clouds in the background.

Oh to the yes for local coffee :) El café de Puerto Rico es el mejor.

A runner’s turnaround. How clever to loop it with round art inside.

The ferry was coming in. Neat :) Fajardo is multifaceted.
A white ferry boat approaches the old ferry dock in Fajardo, Puerto Rico, framed between two tall palm trees. A weathered concrete bench sits in the foreground, and a small boat is moored to the right. Un ferry blanco se acerca al antiguo muelle del ferry en Fajardo, Puerto Rico, enmarcado entre dos altas palmeras. Un banco de hormigón desgastado se encuentra en primer plano, y un pequeño bote está amarrado a la derecha.

That’s what this hillside in Fajardo smells like :)
Red hibiscus flowers bloom in a tropical garden with a view of Fajardo’s marina and boats on the water, under a partly cloudy morning sky. Flores de hibisco rojo florecen en un jardín tropical con vista a la marina de Fajardo y botes en el agua, bajo un cielo parcialmente nublado en la mañana.

🇵🇷🏳️‍🌈 Naguabo Pride at La Carbonera 2, El Malecón de Naguabo, Puerto Rico
A bright yellow building named “La Carbonera 2” is decorated for the Pride Festival in Naguabo, Puerto Rico. A small stage with black curtains and rainbow accents displays the event name alongside colorful raised hands. A door and gate are painted with the Puerto Rican flag, and a rainbow flag hangs beside the entrance. A food kiosk with flowers and pride signs is attached to the right. The sky is overcast, and a colorful umbrella shades an outdoor area with picnic tables. Un edificio amarillo brillante llamado “La Carbonera 2” está decorado para el Pride Festival en Naguabo, Puerto Rico. Un pequeño escenario con cortinas negras y acentos arcoíris muestra el nombre del evento junto a manos coloridas levantadas. Una puerta y un portón están pintados con la bandera de Puerto Rico, y una bandera del orgullo cuelga al lado de la entrada. Un kiosco de comida con flores y letreros de orgullo está adjunto a la derecha. El cielo está nublado, y una sombrilla multicolor cubre una zona de mesas al aire libre.

El Segundo Nivel, Humacao - Art is healing :) 🇵🇷
Seven smiling women pose at El Segundo Nivel in Humacao, Puerto Rico, holding their artwork. All display colorful sunset landscape paintings created in the class, while two women also show abstract grief paintings from a prior healing session. They stand on a black-and-white checkered floor with white walls, gridded windows, and green plants in the background. Siete mujeres sonrientes posan en El Segundo Nivel en Humacao, Puerto Rico, mostrando sus obras de arte. Todas presentan paisajes al atardecer pintados en clase, y dos también muestran pinturas abstractas de una sesión anterior de duelo.

El atardecer es un momento mágico por los alrededores de Fajardo, Puerto Rico.

Dusk in Fajardo is magical.
The marina at Puerto Chico in Fajardo, Puerto Rico, glows under the soft colors of dusk, where sea meets hills and sky. Vista tranquila al atardecer del puerto deportivo Puerto Chico en Fajardo, Puerto Rico. Docenas de yates y veleros blancos descansan en el muelle, rodeados de aguas calmas y colinas verdes. El cielo se ilumina con tonos suaves de anaranjado y lavanda, y una palmera a la izquierda enmarca la escena con un aire tropical.

In these parts, one has color by their breakfast table :)

On the verge of up. Humacao, Puerto Rico.
Vista hacia arriba del tragaluz geométrico dentro del Tribunal de Humacao en Puerto Rico. El techo muestra cuatro estructuras de vidrio en forma de pirámide, organizadas en cuadrado, con paneles triangulares y un centro metálico. El cielo está nublado con un leve tono azul. Las paredes blancas y la iluminación empotrada crean un ambiente minimalista e institucional. ———— View looking up at a geometric skylight inside the Humacao Tribunal in Puerto Rico.

Oh. Hey, Skeets :) The anoles are friendly but skittish. Given the opportunity, they’ll keep to themselves. Make friends, and they’ll eat the mosquitos around the house.

Good morning, Naguabo :)

Have you ever felt like you’ve stepped into a movie? Puerto Rico for the win :)
🇵🇷
Harbour Point Marina in Palmas del Mar, Humacao—where pastel villas and luxury yachts create a cinematic coastal escape. Harbour Point is located within Palmas del Mar, a gated beachfront community in Humacao, on Puerto Rico’s southeastern coast. Known for its marina, golf courses, equestrian center, and beachfront club, Palmas del Mar is a hub of resort-style living and vacation rentals. The marina offers direct access to the Caribbean Sea, making it a popular launch point for leisure boating, fishing, and excursions to nearby islands like Vieques and Culebra Este lugar se siente como un escenario de película—todo tan perfectamente ubicado, los colores brillantes, los yates majestuosos, las villas pintorescas—pero no es ficción. Es real. Harbour Point en Palmas del Mar parece una postal viva. Uno camina por este sendero y casi espera ver una cámara rodando una escena. Pero no hay actores, solo la tranquilidad de un rincón costero tan hermoso que cuesta creer que exista.

It’s fun to get lost (but not lost) in the jungle.

The sun was definitely out for at least a moment in Fajardo today.

Flat Toni will be visiting as many antique railway bridges as possible in her journeys around and about Puerto Rico :)
#FlatToni #NLTPP
In this vivid daytime photo, a cardboard cutout of Flat Toni from the podcast Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone is attached to a chain-link fence woven with green vines, white blossoms, and dried seed pods. Behind her rises a rusted steel truss bridge—a striking relic of Puerto Rico’s once-thriving sugarcane rail network. The weathered structure stands in stark contrast to the vibrant blue sky, flecked with puffy white clouds. The scene is captured near Río Blanco in the municipality of Naguabo, a lush region known for its mountainous terrain and historic agricultural activity. The photograph blends lighthearted humor with the quiet dignity of rural infrastructure that has outlasted its industrial era.

Flat tires give me anxiety, but this retired Ford N series tractor from the 1940s isn’t likely to go anywhere soon. I would still feel better if they had air. Do you think anyone would be bothered if I pulled up with an air compressor? :)
Hacienda Muñoz is neat. Coffee tasting? Yes, please.
This photo captures a nostalgic rural scene with a vintage Ford tractor, likely from the 1940s or early 1950s, parked as a display piece amid a lush tropical setting. The addition of a Coca-Cola decal adds a touch of Americana charm. The surrounding elements—including banana plants, a small painted structure, and forested hills—suggest a warm, humid location with a blend of historical and cultural layers.
