I love you El Yunque
In our latest rental adventure driving the newer Suzuki sx4, we headed west this time instead of east to El Yunque National Forest.
It was a welcome change from the city life here in San Juan. It was sort of raining on and off the whole time. It was muddy everywhere due to the constant rainfall. But what would you expect, it is a rain forest. There were streams and waterfalls every where and all kinds of tropical plants. It seemed everyone there were tourists and we fit right in.
Many of the buildings were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression.
We took a hike up some random trail that took us deep into the rain forest. Some bamboo..
The actual rain forest ended up being much smaller than expected. But it was really cool and worth the hour drive to get there.
