Ponce, public transportation and....my new friend

Dear All,
Wow! I couldnt figure out how to access my blog at this library in Ponce from Google but Debra Bailey put it on my www.kendallfarmcottages.com and I accessed it from there, yay! Thanks Debra. My friend Duncan left today! Adios Duncan. I hoped to travel to San Germain today to meet up with Nan Bradshaw but NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION ON Sat & Sunday so hopefully I can catch them in the morning! We've been driving around in a car which was just fabulous and now I am going through withdrawals that my friend and my mode of transportation are gone. I spent much of the day talking with Diana, the front desk clerk at the Hotel I am staying in Ponce central.
Today is a BIG baseball game and if Ponce wins they will be the best in all of Puerto Rico so a big street party is taking place. it is also the celebration of January 25 when many firefighters died fighting a fire that destroyed much of Ponce in 1800s.

I met a really sweet dog. Gave him the rest of my pork from my food last night and now whenever I walk through the park he greets me and follows me. I would take him home if I could. Very sweet disposition. skinny and covered in fleas. poor thing.

ok Duncan said he'd post some news from the last week weve been on the road. not easy to find internet access especially free and functioning access. im off to DR tomorrow!
Cheers, Georgie
