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)

French toast, pancakes, crepes...

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

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

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?

I got at the last day after that tropical thunderstorm where only clouds were present and no sun was visible :cry:

But the red stuff will turn into brown :wink:

As we were "Royal" guests, we got "special" services allways :D

We did all the local attractions at our first trips in 2000 and 2004 like delphine swimming, a truck jungle tour, horse riding, boat trips etc... So this year, we enjoined just in hanging around at the beach or going to the Royal Restaurants :mrgreen:
