Today was the last official full day in Puerto Rico. We took a nice easy day because at this point we are all very exhausted from all the busy days. El Morro was the first place that we visited today. This is the oldest fortress in Puerto Rico. This history behind this building is really truly amazing and the view is beautiful. To learn more about El Morro, click on the following site: http://www.nps.gov/archive/saju/morro.html
The picture above has a lion head in the middle of the entrance to El Morro. Listen to the video below for the history of the lion head.
We ended in early afternoon at a museum, which included folk art from the Americas. We were able to see different instruments, costumes, clothes and much more that represented the cultures. I really enjoyed looking at the eccentric costumes used for different celebrations.
