Washington, DC--I am back in town. It is nice to be here and enjoy the lovely weather. It
is true, that saying, "home is where your heart is." My heart is here with Matty and Lupe, with my friends and with the life I missed during the last month. My trip to Venezuela was a difficult one... made under sad circumstances. It is, and always will be, a physically beautiful country (the yellow Hibiscus bush, above, blooms all year long.) But my month-long stay in Venezuela was complicated by what I saw and observed: it is a country that I do not recognize as mine anymore. I am home now.

What was also wonderful is that you arrived home on the first day of spring!
Good to see you again Luis! Beautiful image to start spring with:)
Bien regresado a casa entonces :)...a disfrutar de los y lo que te rodea y olvidate un poco de lo acontecido...un abrazo y esperemos podamos disfrutar pronto de las flores de la primavera...preciosa instantanea la tuya...
Growing up in Southern California I saw plenty of hibiscus flowers but I don't recall seeing yellow ones. It's beautiful! I'm glad to read that you are back.
True. Migrating to another country is hard but sometimes local situation is so painful that it well deserves forgetting even your own roots. Come to think of it we are only humans and earth is our land. Nice hibiscus!
beautiful flower, very yellow and sunny. ^0^
to be somewhere where you're not comfortable, loses touch of what it really means to be "home".
i'm glad you finally found one and as for the old, they'll still be with you...in your memories. ^0^
Glad you are back and waiting for your great photos.
Yellow color flowers always meant the separation to me, which is very fits to your post about Venezuela.
hace tanto que te esperaba que no se que decirte ,simplemente que faltaba algo, bienvenido y un fuerte abrazo
A wonderful image after all this sadness you went through. I really hope you will feel better now.
I am sad to hear about your country, but it is a great thing that you feel at home there in DC.
Bienvenido a casa Luis, ahora como dice Catarina un poco mas arriba, a disfrutar de y con los que te rodean y a olvidar los malos recuerdos.
Un abrazo!
