Back to Old San Juan

We took another day to tour San Juan
La Perla, a reportedly sketch neighborhood outside the walls of town
we laughed because in our world, that would have been prime real estate, not slums
Entry is hard though
An old cemetery 
gilded rubble
very pretty though 
And then to El Morro, the fort blocking the harbor 

more garitas
triangle stairs
view across old San Juan to San Cristobal
The Three Kings are a big deal in Puerto Rico.  Nativity scenes always contained them, sometimes exclusively (no baby Jesus needed here)
Cobble stones
