A little more San Juan

On Friday we went to tour El Morro and it was beautiful, right on the ocean, a storm rolling in, good history, so much fun.




You could literally see the rain coming at you.

One of the lookout points. El Morro guarded the entrance to Old San Juan for the Spaniards until the Spanish-American war in 1898 where is was defeated by US warships.



The history on the island is so interesting & we really enjoyed it. Hopefully we can bring the boys back some day.



The end of Charlie's Angels was filmed here and while we were there Johnny Depp was there filming 'The Rum Diaries'. Our boat Captain told us so many movies are filmed there because it can look like the Caribbean, New Orleans, Cuba....etc.

On another note, getting into my car on April 22 and the temp reading 115 in the shade????? It's a bit to early for that!!! What happened to spring?
