 From high on the tower room at the oldest fort on the island To enjoying the smallest detail  I enjoyed touring this beautiful island.  I loved this stairway  This balcony shot provided interesting shadows! The narrow streets of Old Town were gorgeous This tree had some great lines and shadows. The streets were cobbled. I love seeing the pink buildings in the tropics! One of the special things was seeing the cliff where families come on the weekends to fly kites. I really wished I had my kite with me.  Next trip I am packing it and plan to spend an hour or two on this hillside with the natives.   Here I am at home in Florida with my kite! sharing with ShadowShotSunday2

Onward to Puerto Rico!

Continuing on, our next stop was San Juan, Puerto Rico! We were greeted at the dock by this wonderful seahorse sculpture on a pink plaza ! Lauren said it best!  We were exhilarated to be here!   Our taxi driver guide took us to see the Plaza of Democracy.   He was proud to show us this government building. I have several fun photos for Shadow Shot Sunday2 this week. The police on the steps did not move aside as we ascended the steps.   Here our guide is explaining about how many different types of marble were used. This photo was taken from in front of the steps, facing the sea. We drove past old forts And many sculptures. We went down side streets in Old Town The buildings were centuries old. Here, our guide stopped and we got out as he showed us the famous blue cobblestones that pave many streets of Old Town. I can't wait to share these with my friends from Blue Monday !  The yell...
