Charlene and I left on Northwestern Airlines at 5:40 a.m. from Grand Rapids bound for Detroit. We had a 2 hour layover there. We talked with this guy who met his wife in Puerto Rico. He used to live in Puerto Rico for years so he told us what we should see there. He had this cute gorilla doll that sang the Macarena song. We got to Puerto Rico around 2:45 p.m. Their time was 1 hour ahead of the Eastern time zone. The temperature was around 80-85 degrees.
We stayed at the El Conquistador Hotel and Casino in New San Juan. There were several pools around the hotel. Inside the lobby, there was this huge aquarium with several Caribbean fish inside. On the Mezzanine level, there were several shops and a casino.
Charlene and I took a nap and then walked to this lighted bridge to check out the Caribe Hilton. We had Italian food at a restaurant inside the Caribe Hilton. After dinner, we went outside and noticed a bunch of people gathering, so wanted to check it out. It was a big festival near the capital building where they had camels, a manger scene, and food. Charlene went to get a Coke and saw that one of the booths was selling the Macarena dolls so we each got one. We had problems catching a cab back to the hotel.
