At dinner tonight

We spent the day in Old San Juan. Ship docked really early - at 7am, and it was so difficult to get up this morning. We've been hitting some cloudy/windy weather and the ship's rocking led me to take another half dramamine last night which left me groggy this morning. Weather today was overcast, but no rain.

We had an appointment this morning to view another hotel. Ended up really liking it -- old world charm with modern amenities. The only thing is that there is no beach and limited bay view. But the property is beautiful.

Afterwards, we wandered around Old San Juan, which brought back memories of the last time we visited. We had lunch at Cafe Manolin. Ordered traditional Puerto Rican fare: Mofongo con pollo, and onion steak, with fried plaintains and rice & beans. Yum! We did some shopping and browsing, petted a dog in the Pampered Pets store, got some coffee at a cafe near Pier 2 and then headed back on board.

We were so sleepy at this point that we ended up taking a 3.5 hour nap! So, sorry not a lot of pictures today! At dinner now - it's quite late, but at least there's no line for dinner. We are emroute to Turks and Caicos and the seas are choppy, keeping some passengers in their rooms.

We have a snorkeling excursion planned for tomorrow, currently scheduled for the afternoon, that we are trying to change to morning. I just hope it will be sunny and warm.
