“To summarize for our English speakers who may have missed yesterday’s details… We opened a plaza in Vega Alta yesterday. It’s named after my Abuelo Guisin, who was the George Bailey of Vega Alta. It’s got kiosks and museum of my stuff (awards & pics n stuff),” Lin tweeted. “Tourists visiting PR–it’s our hope that on your trip, you come to our placita in Vega Alta and take a pic. Spend locally.”
