We arrived in San Juan, Puerto Rico at 10:30 this morning to beautiful weather. I started the day at the Casa Bacardi Visitor Center. It was a nice tour, and of course, ended in their gift shop. Left Cantano and headed for the Candado District and through Old San Juan. We then visited the San Cristobal Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built in 1634 to protect the city from attacks. (I visited the San Felipe del Morro Fortress last year). It had gorgeous views of the city.




















This evening I attended "Exotic Puerto Rico: A Latin Traditions Show". This was a show consisting of dancers performing "modernized, slightly risque versions" of the mambo, rumba, conga, flamenco and rumba. However, the highlight was the vocalist and guitarist. He was a magician with that instrument. I really loved it.
