Puerto Rico--En route to San Juan

Sunday, we headed out after breakfast. Our first stop was at El Conquistador, a Waldorf-Astoria hotel in Fajardo. While our budget didn't exactly permit us to stay, we enjoyed checking it out.



















Next, we winded our way to El Yunque, the rain forest. Steve had driven through it when he was in Puerto Rico the last time, but he never found the waterfalls. This time, we entered from the main entrance, so they were much easier to find. This one was along the road.






We had to hike out to this one.






My wonderful husband stopped at a souvenir shop along the road.




We stopped at a pretty beach in Luquillo.





We drove on a bit further until we came to a strip of kiosks serving food and selling souvenirs. After yet another delicious lunch of rice, beans, our respective plantain choices, and fried chunks of chicken, we shopped a bit before heading into San Juan.
