Can’t stop, won’t stop, bring me that horizon!

Puerto Rico, hooooooo! LOL. Me and the ‘rents took a cruise from NY to the Caribbean (Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, Grand Turk). ‘Twas lovely but I doubt we’ll ever do the whole PR by boat thing again; 3 days without land is enough to make anyone stir crazy. My dad can’t fly for various reasons that he rather not deal with so, boat was the only way he was going to go back to the motherland. We only got about 7 hrs in San Juan and we tried to make the most of it despite the rainstorm from hell. Oh, Isla, you certainly welcomed us back in style, didn’t you? We were able to hit El Morro and score great food at this place by the dock called “Mojito’s”. They don’t get as much hype as “Raices” though they really should and we have high standards as that’s the kind of cuisine we cook ourselves! Om nom nom.

*side note: none of my family hails from San Juan. Mayaguez, Patillas, y Caguas.

Before the storm took us out!

Folks frolicking at El Morro.

Its a cemetery. As if I WOULDN’T end up lingering there. Its a thing.

Cobbles. Also a thing!
