The city has some interesting parts (especially the old quarter), but in general it is not one of my favorite places. The ocean front is covered with hotels and casinos a la Atlantic City. For me, the real charm of Puerto Rico is in the inner part of the island. I love just driving around along the local roads, stop at a roadside bar for a drink and a bit to eat, chat with the proprietor etc. The El Junque rainforest is a must-see. You should also be aware that San Juan has a high crime rate, so be careful flashing your Leica and other possessions after dark. Nathan "Charles W.
