Tourist - wannabe resident.

Last week was our 4th trip to AC - from the first day of our first trip, we fell in love with the island and its simple lifestyle. Not a week goes by that we don't talk about the joy of being in San Pedro and look forward to returning. And on the last day of every trip, I get totally bummed out about having to return to the pressure, politics and pettiness of corporate business.

We would love to retire to AC or Caulker, but until we do, we'll be back every year. And every year, we'll be grateful that San Pedro isn't for everybody.
