New Journal Entry

I am sooooooo excited for this trip. I have not been anywhere to the Caribbean . I lived in Europe for the first 19 years of my life but it looks like nothing in Europe compares to what’s ahead of me.

Hola I can't remember the last time I visited the Island but I am trying to book a ticket for the coming Christmas. I will be going to the south part. I am very exited and hope the changes that have taken place over the years are not too drastic after if you stay positive all good things will happen. I am living in Tequesta Florida. Can't wait

THis island is beautiful but like any where else there is also a different culture.Way to many stray dogs for my little girl that is an animal lover.I wish it was cleaner everywhere,but it is not.The turistas spots are usually very clean. the Island is a paradise I love it,my parents were born there and I go as much as I can.If you are open to a different culture you will love P.R. and it's friendly people.So much to do,don't forget the Camuy Caves you can go rapelling or just site seeing for the less adventuros also snorkeling off the coast of Fajardo around the Island of Acaicos it's just beautiful.The Caonillas lake is in Utuado great for the ones that love to fish.In the same town look for the indian park. So much to see in this Island,I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

If you're looking for perfect, stick to the Hotel and to the attractions in and near Old San Juan. These areas are kept nice and clean for tourists. If you're going out of that area, you have to be ready for a different experience. Do expect traffic and traffic jams. Get good directions before you leave to go someplace. Do not expect the signs on the roads to help you get anywhere. Vieques and Culebra are touted to be paradises, but only if you stay in the hotels. These communities are small and poor - expect very little in terms of facilities. If you're an animal lover you will suffer, as you will see stray animals in so many places, especially at the beach. You will also see dead animals on the roads that no one picks up. There is another bioluminiscent bay in La Parguera, Lajas - this is on the southeast of the island. This area also has the best beaches - especially around Cabo Rojo (beaches like Boqueron, Combate). The waters on this side of the island are better for bathing - the tides are not so strong. If you like surfing, to the northeast in Rincon you will see what surfers consider one of the best places to surf.

Hello; it's been forever since I've been to the island, 26yrs. to be exact.
The web sites you found will help me get the most of my trip; pointing out hot spots. I do remember the rain forest is a spectacular and brethtaking experience.
