Day 5: Fajardo to San Juan and More!

Well, Hello Again from Puerto Rico!

Finally, we are at our last destination of the trip, San Juan, Puerto Rico. We will be performing here and staying for a total of 2 days and 2 nights. So far, things have been great! We started the day traveling from Fajardo to San Juan. Along the way, we stopped at a REALLY great family bakery. There, we were able to get great Puerto Rican coffee and fresh pastries...

After finishing our fine breakfast coffee and pastries, we hit the road to our final destination, El Canario by the Lagoon Hotel.

Once we got our luggage and belongs all settled into our rooms, we hit the beach for the rest of the day! At the beach, we lounged around, soaked up the sun, snorkeled, swam, and had lots of fun. Check out some of the pictures! The water looks so amazing!

When we were all "beached out", we headed back to the hotel and got ourselves ready for dinner. Tonight we split into two groups: the Schenectady group and the St. Rose group. The Schenectady group decided to get some great local pizza, while the CSR group took the bus into Old San Juan to visit a great restaurant called "Raices". Once again, Puerto Rico proves to have some of the best cuisine in the entire world!

Following dinner time, the Schenectady girls took some time to prepare gift bags for the patients at the children's hospital they will be singing at tomorrow. It was another great time for bonding and getting to know each other :-) When they were all done with the gift bags, they headed down to the beach for a night time walk on the shore. More great times!!!

Tomorrow will be a big performance day in Old San Juan. The girls will be performing at an old fort and a children's hospital. Both performances will definitely be unique, so check back tomorrow to read about our last full day in Puerto Rico :-)


Adios!
