* I learned that Puerto Rican diners are more delicious than NJ ones. It's the truth! Now hear me out, the beer was cheap ($2.75), they give you a garlic kind of bread when you sit down, and they have fresh, amazing seafood for a decent price! We must have spent around $20 for two meals and two beers (both for me of course)
* I realized that I average around a gallon of water a day ( one day it was a half gallon in 30 min!)
*Some Spanish phrases I picked up while in San Juan...
1)No se de donde vinieron (las drogas) ---> I don't know where the drugs came from.
2)Donde esta la peleade gallos? ---> Which way to the cock fight?
3)Creo que voy a vomitar. ---> I think i'm going to vomit (one i used most)
We traveled to old San Juan one day to see the beautiful architecture
,the cooooolest cemetery ever
,and fucked up statues!
That night my 3rd LG chocolate cell phone broke! I had only had it for a week!! We went to dinner at the expensive restaurant at our hotel and that night they had a special, with any purchase of 2 meals you get a bottle of house wine for free! So naturally I drank the entire bottle. That night we were awoke by a fire alarm. So random. Someone was trying to smoke a cigarette on our floor. Idiots!
The next day was the rainforest!!! It was so beautiful! We hiked through the lush foliage to a waterfall...
Minha's fav. part was passing by 4 cute boys. Minha says...." I was walkin walkin walkin, taking pictures. Two hot guys say hello. Walking, another hot guy. Kirsten in the distance making the international grab ass sign."
Our awesome tour guide, Hector, took us to an observatory and a few waterfalls. We talked about tattoos (i'm making a generalization, but Puerto Ricans love my tattoo), and on the way back i asked him to tell us a story and it went something like this....
Hector got home early one day (when he was still married) and was cleaning his van before he could take his wife out to dinner. She asked if he needed any help to speed the process along. He told her to help clean the inside of the van and to start from the back to the front. Lo and behold, there was a naked spring breaker passed out on the back bench. Her friends got her real drunk as part of a hazing process for a sorority, she passed out, and they took her clothes. Naturally, the wife freaked the fucked out. Needless to say, they are no longer married.
That night we went to a Mexican bar and grill and ate the spiciest jalapeño EVER!!!! I cried! But i ate it anyway. We ate ourselves into food comas and i drank a margarita the size of my face (and then another one). It was great, until I threw it all up. But it was my last night in Puerto Rico, vom wasn't about to get me down! I flushed that food and marg's down the toilet, and started a bed jumping dance frenzy ("Kirsten, let's jam!").
Coming home was stressful (cab->plane, plane->air train, air train->A train, A train-> bus, bus-> walking, walking->car, car-> verizon, verizon-> HOME!).
I got a new phone, 4th one!!!!! DONT GET THE LG VERIZON CHOCOLATE!!!! THEY HATE PEOPLE!
Vaca was fun! I loved being warm.... however, I am still finding sand in my scalp.
