heritage tree ancient

A visit to PR wouldn't feel complete without a walk through Old San Juan, a world heritage site.
The fortress of San Felipe del Morro
The bark of this tree in the plaza is interesting.
Some houses are brightly painted. The presence of the car is ubiquitous. Laruga posted an internet discussion about plans to remove the cars from the ancient walled city. Alas, those talks have been in discussions for years. The car is still present here.
Amparo's house
The Children's Museum.

Dear Claudia
I hope you can sometime. It's pretty. Old San Juan is it's most beautiful asset, although because of the economy, I saw it was not sufficiently maintained as in previous years. You can get good rates to fly there from JFK or Newark airports. The low season is April, when you can fly round trip for under $400. It's got a good yoga studio called It's yoga that is really active with ashtanga and flow yoga.
I just arrived in Shanghai after about 30 hours of travel.
hugs
Arturo
