I like San Juan. I hadn’t been there for several years, so I was looking forward to being there again. But we didn’t dock until around 10:30am so we had time for both a leisurely breakfast and a few hands of knock rummy before we went ashore.
The ship docked very near Old San Juan, so we simply walked into the city. Just a couple of blocks from the port we encountered a casino and of course we had to check it out. It was tiny – probably 30 slots and a couple of table games. We didn’t stay long, just long enough to lose $20.
We then searched for thrift stores, without much success. We did find some “vintage clothing” shops which had the clothes we were looking for, but at inflated prices. Mostly we just window-shopped and enjoyed the views in the city and overlooking the harbor.
Marlene finally found 2 dresses in Marshalls. Then we returned to the ship for lunch. I did some photo editing the joined Marlene in the casino where I broke even. Dinner was Marlene, me and Paul – Carol was not feeling well.
After dinner we danced a bit then attended the Family Feud Live show – always a treat. This time the real head scratcher was the 2 answers from the winning team to the question “name a sexy food you can find in the supermarket.” Sweet potato and broccoli. Really?
