Day 84 San Juan

There were sad farewells yesterday as we parted with 
our crew, Mashelle and Krasni in San Juan, Puerto Rico. 
We then walked into the old city. The people here are 
so friendly, from the first chap who took our garbage 
when he saw us looking for dust bins, to the shop assistants, 
to the taxi driver who shook our hands and wished us a 
safe trip! Its is wonderful old city, with the old fort (1540) 
dominating the entrance to the San Juan Bay. The marina 
is full of private fishing boats with huge outboard motors. 
Its a big sport fishing area. There were 3 cruise ships here 
yesterday and 4 arrived today. Its a major cruise ship port. 
We leave for Cuba today, should take about 7 days. 
The weather forecast is very favorable. Lines are out, 
lets see if we can catch fish!
