Yesterday afternoon we went to the beach at El Escambron. The water was nice, the sun was bright and we loved swimming in the ocean. The kids were exhausted by the end of the day.
Today we went on an adventure to Las Cabezas de San Juan. It's a nature preserve that has 7 different ecosystems. We traveled to the Lighthouse in Fajardo and were able to go to the Observation Tower. It was raining in the distance, but we were able to see Vieques, and the other Keys just off Fajardo. The next stop on the tour was a Rocky Shore. It was filled with black rocks and corals. The last stop was a tour through a Mangrove. The guide pointed out the 4 different trees that grow in the mangroves in Puerto Rico. We saw crabs, millipides (esp?), and spiders. We also saw Anemones, Sea Cucumbers, Hermit Crabs and Giant Lizards. It was so much fun, except that it started raining, but that just made the adventure even more 'au natural'. Definitely a good trip.
On the way back we stopped in Luquillo and had some dinner.
Tomorrow it's off the Caguana and the Camuy Caves.
