A day in Old San Juan

So Old San Juan was the old capital of Puerto Rico during Spanish rule - duh - old san juan...so we took a  trip there on Sunday the main itinerary - me and my itineraries for trips even to a New York Day trip I had an itinerary of arrival time what we would do and for how long lol of course it all ends up getting tossed out the window but trust me they help so anyhu the itinerary for Sunday was to go to a local church at 10 thirty then do Old San Juan in the afternoon however the long of the short we ended up leaving the hotel at noon and took a bus to Old San Juan which did i mention we waited for about an hour in 80 degree HUMID weather we had to grab a bottle of Fiji water at walgreens Exhibit A

So anyhu after an hour long wait the bus finally showed up the T5 and it took us almost half an hour to get there...our main destination was El Morro basically it was a fort built as a citadel yani bazookas the works -we actually watched a live demo - it was built to protect the city of San Juan and actually the whole of the Carribean at a time when Europe, North America were on a conquest for colonies etc etc ...that is a real condensed version but I think there is a deeper story to this and its history etc etc...but we were just awed by Old San Juan - the music can you imagine salsa, merengue, 24-7, the old roads, the people the food the little cafeteria line the streets all overooking the ocean and we were lucky to catch the annual cultural festival so there were artifacts from different artisans. We got to see a cruise ship that had docked at the harbor, there was even a mini "Trafalgar square" where you could feed the piegeons and of course we had to end our day at a Carribean restaurant and fianlly eat the famous mofongos which is basically mashed plantain so sweet and chicken wrapped in it with rice and beans yani the combo was so good and all the while listening to salsa music...
