An old Spanish bolero starts with the words, "En mi viejo San Juan." It is a love song to the oldness of this fortress city. Old San Juan, Puerto Rico, doesn't need the faux paint jobs to get the look of age. It's a natural part of all the old areas of Puerto Rico.
Nothing whitewashed. History maintained.

This really captures Old San Juan. I feel like I'm there while I look at the pictures. I didn't know you had a blog, I am glad you have it. Best wishes. Mildred
