Gilberto has been in the military for 13 years. In that time, we've been stationed in San Diego-Naval Base San Diego, Oklahoma City-Tinker Air Force Base, Virginia Beach-Little Creek NAB. And Japan, Misawa Air Base.
While in the Navy, Gilberto has been to Australia, Israel, Guam, Spain, Greece, Thailand, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Italy, Seychelles, Madagascar, Gibraltar, Canada, Mexico, and Singapore. (There's some more countries, but I couldn't spell them easily, HA). And Hawaii many times!
Special thanks to Adia for taking an interest in her Tio and his military career. =)
With all these military moves, we say goodbye to friends all the time. That's the hard part...
Arsenio and Miguel w/Berto
At the airport saying goodbye to the Pabons. They'll be missed.
Trying to keep record of the boxes I send out since I've lost track of most. Sending this out to an old friend, Bebe. And her two kids. Sorry Aaron, it's harder to find a gift for a grown man. In the wrapped box on top there is a kokeshi with umbrella, (Japanese like to wrap) what Bebe requested. Hello Kitty specialty bag, egg molds, gyoza shaper, (that could be for Aaron since he loves gyoza!) HK and dinosaur stickers, origami paper and CANDY!
Stray cat that has made her way into our hearts...
She's blind in one eye. Berto and I are completely at her mercy. But she hasn't realized this yet.
