Paloma means pigeon?

The day started with more rain. We braved through it with coats and an umbrella to a tasty breakfast spot that had both savory and sweet waffles. 😋

A monstrous cruise ship docked in the marina overnight- Marcella Discovery- just outside our hotel.

The rain and clouds cleared as we made our way by foot through old San Juan. Josie and Noel were shopping and photo buddies! So many Instagram worthy shots. Noel was able to find the perfect sun hat- custom fit 👒.

The streets have a New Orleans/San Francisco vibe. Lots of undulation and bright colors. Even the cobblestone roads had a bluish tint. French and Spanish influences said the tour guide I happened to stand next to 😉.

Parque de las palomas was wild. What seemed like a hundred pigeons would land on anyone who had the hint of food. It made for a few fun photos. I much prefer the tequila kind of palomas.

After a quick swim in the pool we walked along the water towards La Forteleza- a fortress from the 1500s that serves as the residence of the governor of Puerto Rico. We found a spot for a tapas dinner with a live musician. The food was good (still haven’t found the “it” plantain dish), but I think Millie would agree the highlight was dancing with her dad while we waited for our check. 1-2-cha cha cha. 💃 🕺🏼

Have I mentioned what a wonderful job Noel has done planning this trip?Leggi altro
