Puerto Rico- Part 2


Our hotel was only minutes away from El Yunque. El Yunque is the only rain forest located in the US or its territories so it was definitely on the to-do-list.
We found several trails to hike and the majority of them had waterfalls.




We spent one day hiking on our own, then we convinced others from our group to join us. It ended up being a much longer hike than expected so they will probably never go back with us. Regardless of the length it was worth it as we were able to make it to the highest point in the rain forest. It was an overcast day so the view was limited but we were up there long enough to see a break in the clouds and see the entire island.




After a long day of hiking we headed back into San Juan. There happened to be a street festival going on so we were able to still around a bit after dinner.
