Puerto Rico was my favorite part of the whole vacation this trip. It has a rainforest, so it was very humid. I love being hot!! We went to El Morro and Downtown San Juan. I loved learning the history of PR at El Morro. We also went to Barrachina Restaraunt, twice. Most people speak Spanish and English fluently and switch back and forth with no problems. Except for the taxi driver who thought we said "Royal Caribbean" instead of "Caribe Hilton" which was the name of our hotel. This lead to an unnecesary ride to the port. Oh well. Our second day there we spent all day in El Morro and took tons of pictures! Then we lost our camera in the taxi ride home. No worries, there was a best buy on San Juan, so problem solved. We would go back to PR in a heartbeat! Really want to do the Rainforest and bioluminescent bay! Anyone want to come?
