Windy City Water Polo high school boys at Vivo Beach Club, Puerto Rico

We're back from Puerto Rico! We stayed in the Condado neighborhood, went to Condado beach, Isla Verde beach, Old San Juan, the Vivo Beach Club (see pictures), and hiked in El Yunque. We went through tons of water and 22 bottles of sun screen. I think we also played some water polo on this vacation! A big thanks to Mr. Murphy and Luis for being great hosts and guides. I am hoping that we will return to this tournament again next summer, so please start to think about joining us next July. Thanks also to the Puerto Rican nine who helped with the clinic and scrimmage at the River Forest Tennis Club last night. After a long week end, I appreciate your willingness to show some younger kids just how great our sport is.

We have only two more weeks of water polo this summer!
