Well, we’re almost there . . .

View from our hotel in Puerto Rico while we wait . . .

We arrived in Puerto Rico last night after a very long day of flying. We ate at Plato’s where I enjoyed mafongo (major plantain pastiness) and Don enjoyed el jibaritos’s (plantain sandwich!!), Julie, you were sooo right! At the moment we are in our hotel room waiting to get to the ship. It’s raining (but oh so warm!) so we can’t walk to the beach and this is the only photo I can offer – it’s a fig tree hedge with a palm tree in the distance. I have the window open and because we are close to the airport we are getting a mix of giant roaring aircraft engines mixed in with roosters crowing – how neat! It’s just plain good to be here.
