Puerto Rico-Day Three Saturday

Day Three started out with us out on the beach in the morning. There is so many types of police on the beach in Isla Verde it's crazy! While on the beach this morning we saw two different types of boat police, helicopters, 4 wheelers and here on horses. The German guys that took this picture I guess thought I didn't want the cop (decapitated) in the picture. 

After a morning at the beach we decided to go into Old San Juan and check out the 2 Forts that were built to 'fortify' the city of San Juan. The first one we came to was Fort San Cristobal finished being built in 1783. It was amazing to see the type of work that was done in this fort. It was so windy up there too, you can tell by my sideways ponytail. I set my camera up to take this picture and the wind kept blowing it over too. 

The Perla section of town is right below the walkway between the two forts. Amazing because it is a not so nice part of town and they have total ocean front views. I guess they were having a rooftop party up here. 

Here I am in one of the sentry boxes. 

Inside San Cristobal..lots of these hallways...
