Old San Juan, Puerto Rico


What I can't figure out is how this lovely old city, which reminds me of Lisbon, and where I hear Spanish being spoken all around me, is part of the United States! Must read up on that history...

We had a nice surprise at our hotel, where Cathie and Dick had left a message pack at the front desk, including a map, and copious notes on where to eat and sightsee during our short stay. They were here at the beginning and end of their Tortola adventure, and stayed at the same hotel.

I found The Butterfly People, a shop which has enormous displays of rain forest butterflies, caught between plexiglass and very artistically arranged. I inherited one which came with our home in Tortola.
