At my first visit in 2000, we flew from Punta Cana to Puerto Rico, picking up cruise guests before returning to Germany. So I have been at Puerto Rico too (but at transit only)

We had real American breakfast "only" every day with:

French toast, pancakes, crepes...

...bagels (w/ cheese & peanuts butter), dougnuts, omeletts (w/ bacon, cheese, onions) and some continental Baguette w/ butter & jam

and some real coffee:

That didn´t changed color even after pouring that half glas of milk (con leche)

Great pictures, housil! Looks like a lot of eating and a lot of laying around in the sun getting roasted. I just showed Mrs. Kman the picture of the beach and she exclaimed, "No wonder he got sunburned! Look at the white sand!". Yes, Mrs. Kman is a suntanning expert. I'm just a suntanning victim.

Housil,
Indeed, Welcome back. Looks like the food there was enough and delicious. Got any pictures of some local attractions?

That sunburn I got:
I got at the last day after that tropical thunderstorm where only clouds were present and no sun was visible
*outch-outch*
But the red stuff will turn into brown
before my skin will fall apart...
