As usual this post will start from the end of the trip and end at the beginning...
Our last night we spent in Old San Juan, a city filled with history and of coursea major cruise ship port, hence all the people that were there!
All the buildings were beautiful and pastel.
A castle from the 1500's.
and built by the Spanish of course.
The fort and entrance to the city also built by the Spanish in the 1500's.

The city was protected by a large sprawling wall to ward off pirates and unwanted guests.

The best part of this city was the large variety of cuisines available.
We ate Mexican, Argentinian, Cuban, Puerto Rican and Italian food and could have eaten Japanese, Indian and Thai food as well but we did not have enough time!

We are still unsure how people are able to receive permission to live and open a restuarant inside a national park. We asked the tour guide but he did not know the answer either.
yes there was a dog on the roof of the restaurant!
At the top of the lookout tower in the Rainforest.
there is a small tree frog called a "co'qui" (ko-kee) here if you can find it!
