We departed Vieques early Wednesday afternoon and returned back to San Juan. I had called our next resort to arrange for a pick-up at the airport and learned the charge would be $60 per person round trip (damn taxi union), so we opted to rent a car. Our resort, the Wyndham Rio Mar, was about twenty miles east of San Juan and we figured the rental would also save us a fortune getting to Old San Juan. As we landed at the airport we figured that we may as well visit Old ...

We spent yesterday in eastern Puerto Rico. Our guide Joe took us up into the rainforest of El Yunque, where we walked along a beautiful track following a tropical stream over the rapids and waterfalls. Afterwards we spent the afternoon on the beach at Playa Luquillo, our last chance to soak up Caribbean sun. Joe gave an excellent talk about the current political status of Puerto Rico, which surprised the Americans on the tour who had not realised that San Juan was a non-voting colony of the U...
