This is Hotel Convento in Old San Juan. A beautiful hotel an very friendly staff.


Inside at the Hotel Plaza.


You can imagine the nuns working here.


A nice place to relax after a walk in Old San Juan.


There is a small park outside the hotel.

Oh, I'm anxious to hear all about your cruise!!

We would have loved to stay at the El Convento when we cruised out of San Juan at Christmas time, but we would have had to get two rooms.......with the two kids. We ended up at the Embassy suites which offered a seperate sitting area with sofa bed. We did go into Old San Juan and peek into the hotel.........just lovely! Glad you enjoyed it!

Old San Juan is a beautiful place to be.








El Castillo San Felipe del Morro

Inside El Castillo.


This was not my idea. Some other tourist did this. I just couldn't resist.




From El Castillo down to the ocean.


Kari took thiis picture of me.





There were many rooms to search.

What a beautiful place! One day Chris and I hope to make it there. Normally when in Puerto Rico we are in Lares and never get to see the pretty stuff like that.
