Nuevos Amigos....



Last evening (Tuesday) we went to a tienda down the street and then stopped at another one on the corner. The first was like a grocery store, and had a Dominican Restaurant outside. The woman was very hospitable. I finally felt like I was getting to understand the real PR a little better (I realize it is ironic that she is from the DR, yet I felt like I was getting to know PR). The second tienda was much smaller, and the owners were appreciative of our company, as we sat and talked with them a while. The one man lived in the US for over 15 years, and told us a bit of his own story of life in the US and subsequently returning to PR. Again, it was great getting to know more about the people here, and what their stories are.
