We spend the morning running some errands, and wait for our ferry out of the island around noon. I don't think the personality of Culebra matched well with our tastes. We end up having a much better time when we return to the island later in our trip and camp, without having to interact much with others. The kabob by the ferry is DELICIOUS! I highly recommend that vendor.
Ferry. Nausea. Sleep. Ferry port in Farjado, PR. Enterprise car rental.
We have a chance to look around the El Conquistador hotel & resort, the most high-end place to stay in PR. The place can be reached after a 10 minute drive through a golf course, and has over 70 shops. There are 3 enormous outdoor pools that overlook the Ocean (I think). Enterprise checks clients in at this location on the weekends, so it was a fortunate sight-seeing experience. As nice as this place was, I was happy with the itinerary Brian had planned for us. I think backpacking through Puerto Rico and its Spanish Virgin Islands is much more memorable and worthwhile than reminiscing about drinking pina colada by the pool at El Conquistador.
- Luquillo Beach
After a long wait, we take off in our
red Hyundai for El Yunque, making a pit stop at
Luquillo beach and a Taco Maker.
Taco Maker is the Taco Bell/Del Taco of Puerto Rico. Yeah. Once we get to the rainforest, we grow weary that we've arrived too close to sunset and won't find camping ground in time. It would be my first time camping... maybe I wouldn't like it? Maybe it would be ok if we didn't end up camping there after all? Alas, we did find
a good spot.
