SAN JUAN PUERTO RICO FESTIVAL and an ISLAND BUS TOUR EXCURSION

San Juan Puerto Rico turned out to be one of my favorites! As soon as we walked off the ship, San Juan, Puerto Rico surprised me with its rich history and culture as we took an island bus tour excursion to National Parks and downtown for sightseeing, and photo stops The highlight was I had a chance to hangout with the locals at the PUERTO RICO FESTIVAL PARADE, and experience and learn about their beautiful culture

San Juan is the birthplace of the pina colada. We visit Barrachina, the restaurant claiming to be the original home of this delicious frozen cocktail. Another hotel down the road made the same claim, but we don't care. Barrachina had great drinks and great food, as we had the seafood mofongo.

Puerto Rico's history is a rich tapestry influenced by its indigenous roots, European colonization, and its status as a U.S. territory.

Before the arrival of Europeans, Puerto Rico was inhabited by the **Taíno people**, who were part of the Arawak
