This year my parents and aunt paid for my plane ticket for my birthday and my aunt used her Marriott points for the resort (hello FREE vacation)!!! I was super excited and so ready to get away to a great vacation. Anyone been to Puerto Rico?!?! Not quite what I expected. We get there and it was dirty, locals were rude, beach was not too nice, water not clear....so I was bummed and aunt was so depressed and sad about it. I was determined to have fun though. The resort was fairly nice and lets face it- again free. We went to Old San Juan to see the historical stuff and where battles from World War II took place -- very interesting for me. Then we went to the Bacardi Distillery -- interesting but not a first choice.
The next few days I spent time on the beach and by the pool to relax and get my tan on!! I got burned the first day laying out with SPF 30 -- yes this white girl was quite red. Lucky for me it turns into tan fast and I was back at it the next day ( you all know I do not learn easily). The last day we went to El Yunque which is the Rainforest that is being nominated for one of the 7 Wonders of the World. It was very nice and got a lot of pictures. It was a good place to go once (if free or really cheap) but I would not suggest it to anyone looking for a nice vacation or that wants to do a lot and see a lot. Not too much to the island and honestly there are far more islands that are way better. I was so glad to get home this past Friday and enjoy the last few days of my vacation here in GA. Next year -- I think I will stick to Florida:)
