Puerto Rico Trip - Day 2

Kristi and I woke up at the crack of dawn (3:30 a.m.) to catch our flight from Toronto to Miami. We had a layover in Miami and then flew onto Puerto Rico!






Kristi and I got UNCOUNTABLE comments (and stares) about being twins! This went on all week with the minimum comments per day being at 2...we got some pretty intense reactions.



The above picture is us on our way to the Paradisus all-inclusive resort. The buses and restaurants in Puerto Rico were always really cold!

This was our amazing bedroom! We had marble floors and counters in our room, a free (included) mini bar and room service any time we fancied!









When we got to the resort we headed off to get some grub.
After we had eaten Kristi and I were walking around with my boss' daughters when two guys approached us. They were quite intoxicated and asked where the fun was...I, so graciously and professionally, ended up saying "We're not fun and we're not interested!" and then we walked away. Yikes. Graceful wording was not in my favour at that moment.



The fountains and architecture of the resort was amazing and inspiring! Everything about it was gorgeous!






When we got back to our room we found a little lizard making himself/herself at home in the window of our bathroom. Embarassingly enough, I ended up knocking on my boss' door at midnight and asked her what we should do. We ended up calling room service and a guy came, wrapped his hand with a thick amount of toilet paper and swept that lizard out of our abode. However, not before the room service staff had a great laugh at me over the phone after I said, "Umm I have a lizard in my bathroom". I refuse to admit that I was scared of the lizard...I was just...wary. ; )



end of day 2.
I was enthralled with Puerto Rico thus far
-the ocean, the colour of the buildings, the apparent differences in the way of life from Canada, the palm trees, the weather, the beauty...
