Old San Juan

Vacation. Now I travel, but I have not been on a proper vacation in a couple years. Like a proper stay in a hotel, go to another country, allow myself to be pampered vacation. We have gotten into a routine of going away for Christmas as a family and I LOVE this. Paris was two years ago, this year we ventured to the Caribbean. The first stop was San Juan, Puerto Rico. We only had about 24 hours to enjoy, but it was just enough to take in the sights, tastes and sounds of the city. We woke up early and set out, I was in love with the colorful hues of both the buildings and natural scenery. 





Old San Juan boasts a number of historical sites. Two of the main attractions are the Castillo de San Cristobal and the San Felipe del Morro Fort. It is free to walk the grounds and a small fee to go inside. 











We stopped in for a small breakfast before heading onto our next destination. Mallorca is a traditional Puerto Rican bread used for sandwiches. If you like sweet and savory this ham, cheese & egg Mallorca would receive two thumbs up. 





Adios Puerto Rico!
