Pictures are on my review from the 1/19 sailing, but it's just an awesome sight.

Yes it is.  We are right next to it, but have not been cleared for disembarkation yet.

Thank-you, we are very glad to be here.

 

Oh, and just to make you feel better about freezing your you know what off, it's overcast right now in OSJ, and it would not surprise me if it rains.  Temp is 79F.

 

Update: It is raining.

We've been cleared and it looks to be getting sunnier.  We will get off after the rush.

 

I think I already see Robyn down there at one of the sidewalk cafes with an umbrella drink.

It was not there last year or at least I don't remember it from then.

I think she said she was going to visit the bat conservatory.

I’m back onboard!

It was really great to be back in San Juan. The last time I was here, was the November after the hurricane hit, I think it was 7 weeks after... It was heartbreaking. Things look better, but nowhere near the San Juan I know. There are homeless people and animals all over the place. I bought dog and cat food at CVS - what can I say? I love all animals ❤️ It is the absolute least I could do.

 

We walked a lot. Visited Barrachina for the famed Pina Colada, in and out of a bunch of stores and the time flew by.

 

Here are some photos of the afternoon.

From one animal lover to another I say thank you for doing that! That is amazing.

I say this as I sit here reading your review with a cat sleeping on my foot.
