The Puerto Rican Sojourn - Days 2 & 3

Whew. So it looks like Hurricane Isaac will spare much of the Caribbean and South Florida.  The heavy winds and rains could cause some flooding for our friends in the Dominican Republic and Haiti, so we're keeping them in our thoughts.
We're pretty sure our friends down in Puerto Rico are especially happy to see this weather change. In case you missed it, I was in PR earlier this month and had a blast. As promised, here are the photos from the remainder of the trip.

El Yunque...HERE WE COME!!

From the observation point of The Yokahu Tower. Kinda reminds me of the mountains of Jamaica.
La Mina Falls - the trail to the falls was amazing. Sorry, I don't have any pictures but I was too busy watching my step making sure I didn't end up flat on my face...lol


Stopped for some libation on our way back from El Yunque. I was still trying to catch my breath after making it back up the trail.  Who knew that Pina Coladas had medicinal purposes?
On our last day, we spent the afternoon in Old San Juan before heading to the airport.  I was so hot I don't know how I didn't end up here. Darn kids have all the fun.






We walked around the for thirty minutes looking for Raices Restaurant, because we heard it was a must while on the island. Well, when we finally found it, the wait was over thirty minutes and departure time was drawing near, so we ended up eating at Chili's...lol

We had an amazing time but there was so much we didn't get to see and do. So, another trip is definitely in the works.

Hope you all have a great weekend.  We'll be hoping that Isaac doesn't gather any more strength and simply just fade into the night.
