Beautiful  Flamboyants, Lining  Military Road

"This beautiful view shows part of the road after leaving the town of Caguas during the months of June and July, when the "Flamboyant" trees are in bloom. This island is covered with these trees and when looking down form the mountains one sees the flaming red flowers everywhere."
