Worth visiting!
I lived there for 4 years. It was the best place to be a kid. We went to all kinds of places there. My dad was a Marine and we went on the base all the time. There were mango trees there. I love mango. My favorite thing there was the Banyan trees. It was like a maze.

The first one I saw was in Santa Marta, Colombia, of all places, at San Pedro Alejandrino, the estate where Simon Bolivar died. He had the Banyan Tree planted there as the symbol for—something. His vision for South America? Liberty? The banyan tree reproduces itself by sending shoots down to the ground from its branches and where the shoots find fertile ground, the tree begins a new tree. Very cool.
