Our trip to San Juan and Old San Juan
Come and join us as we begin our trip to Puerto Rico. This video is a combination of the two days we spend exploring Old San Juan.
Old San Juan is located on a small and narrow island which lies along the north coast, about 35 miles (56 km) from the east end of Puerto Rico, and is united to the mainland of Puerto Rico by three bridges. It is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the north and to the south by San Juan Bay (or "Bahia de San Juan")—which lies between the city and the mainland. On a cliff about 100 feet (30 m) high, at the west end of the island and commanding the entrance to the harbor, rise the battlements of Fort San Felipe del Morro, in which there is a lighthouse.
The "Caño de San Antonio" lies to the southeast, where the island of Old San Juan connects to the mainland through Santurce, by three bridges, "Puente Dos Hermanos" (Ashford Avenue), "Puente G. Esteves" (Ponce de León Avenue) and "Puente San Antonio" (Fernández Juncos Avenue).
The city is characterized by its narrow, blue cobblestone streets, and flat roofed brick and stone buildings which date back to the 16th and 17th century—when Puerto Rico was a Spanish possession. Near Fort San Felipe del Morro, is the Casa Blanca, a palace built on land which belonged to the family of Ponce de León.
In 1508, Juan Ponce de León founded the original settlement, Caparra[5] (named after the Province of Cáceres, Spain, birthplace of the then-governor of Spain's Caribbean territories, Nicolás de Ovando). The ruins of Caparra are known as the Pueblo Viejo sector of Guaynabo, behind the almost land-locked harbor just to the west of the present San Juan metropolitan area. In 1509, the settlement was abandoned and moved to a site which was called at the time "Puerto Rico" (meaning "rich port" or "good port"), a name that evoked that of a similar geographical harbor in the island of Gran Canaria, Canary Islands. In 1521, the name "San Juan" was added, and the newer settlement was given its formal name of "San Juan Bautista de Puerto Rico", following the usual custom of christening the town with both its formal name and the name which Christopher Columbus had originally given the islands, honoring John the Baptist.

DUTCH
dutchman-hike-10-april-2010
This Wilderness was designated in 1939, and was expanded to its present size in 1984. It now contains approximately 160,200 acres. There is a well-developed trail system, and the western end of the wilderness receives heavy use during the cooler times of the year. Trail conditions vary from fair to very poor. Several trails are unsuitable for horses.
The area is starkly beautiful and often rugged, but can be inhospitable to those not equipped to meet nature on her own terms. Searing heat and a shortage of water are typical conditions in the summer. Bitter cold, rains (and even snowstorms) may occur in the winter.
Rumors still abound concerning lost gold mines, "secret maps," etc., and are still being sold to the unwary.

OUR T
our-trip-to-biosphere2
The University of Arizona is building a research program to bridge the gap between laboratory and field-scale studies utilizing the unique infrastructure of Biosphere 2. The facility offers unparalleled opportunities to explore complex questions in earth sciences, allowing highly controlled experiments to be conducted at varying scales with precise manipulation and close monitoring.
Biosphere 2 permits environmental variables to be tightly controlled even at a large spatial scale such as that of the different wilderness biomes represented under the glass. It also permits testing and utilization of novel techniques and instruments that are not amenable to field studies. This ability to obtain high-resolution measurements and finely manipulate variables is crucial for developing experiments of more mechanistic nature. Thus Biosphere 2 has the potential to provide unique contributions to the understanding of how earth systems respond to environmental change. Past research at Biosphere 2 has made significant scientific contributions in areas such as the understanding of ecosystem responses to elevated carbon dioxide concentrations.
Under new administration by the University of Arizona, we intend to extend this approach to the study of two primary areas, water and climate, and energy and sustainability. By building upon the academic excellence of the University of Arizona and its large external scientific network in hydrology, geology, geochemistry, ecology, biology, physics, engineering, and atmospheric sciences, we are developing a strong multidisciplinary team of researchers who are designing and deploying top-notch science to address complex scientific questions in environmental sciences.
