Our visit was several months after the hurricane and I know our tour traveled on roads that were once washed out but now repaired. I’m sure we also passed buildings that had been damaged and repaired. I was struck by the amount of damage that still remained. Our view of Puerto Rico was much more limited as we only took a short taxi ride. Here on St Thomas, we traversed much of the island on our tour.

The pics in comparison are so easily digestible as the view is limited. When the scope of destruction can be seen live, it’s always so much more massive than one can imagine by viewing pics or TV….
