*Monica, Leah and Julian Gonzalez*I'm back in the USA! After 4 days, my jet-lag is officially gone. It's been wonderful to be back with my husband, and finally I have gotten to meet his sister. Of course I miss the EMCLers, and I've experienced a bit of culture shock with small things (so many cars, where are all the walkers and bikes? dogs aren't as well-trained and are on leashes!, strangers are super friendly and smile at you when you walk by! there aren't bakeries on every block!, etc).
We've been spending a lot of time seeing the area, since Julian's sister, Monica, is here for the summer and is really busy working during the week. So on the weekends, it's a whirlwind of taking pictures, driving to see new places and mainly having a lot of fun.
Last Saturday we went to Sandy Point State Park in Maryland to enjoy the beach at Chesapeake Bay! After an afternoon of sun and surf, we drove to Annapolis and spent the evening walking around the historic downtown-- it's so beautiful and peaceful there by the harbor.

*on the side of the schooner-- later a man yelled at monica for trying to climb onboard... whoops!*On Sunday, we went to a picnic/potluck at some friends' house, then to the Smithsonian American Indian Museum and the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum.
