We had a wonderful time at la fiesta at Machabuca (Dad's place). Great food prepared by Elba with Arlee assisting, interesting dishes brought by the guests and much singing and guitar playing. The rum bar had 10 rums from five countries. The old bottle of Havana Club was the first one to be emptied after which several of the guests explained that Puerto Rico makes the best rum.
We took Arlee and Shawn back to the airport in San Juan then walked around old San Juan. It is a $0.75 bus ride or a $19 taxi ride from our hotel. The old city is beautiful. We toured San Cristobal, a fort from the 16th century. The photo was taken from the fort looking toward a second fort, El Morro. The entire old city was walled, most of which is still standing.
Today we fly to Costa Rica. We have already been to the beach where Steve ran while I swam. I left my crutches behind and walked the last couple days without my cane. Every day my leg is better.
