Oh, also, if you find yourself in Old San Juan, do yourself a big favor and try this restaurant (it's a locals restaurant and it is fantastic)
LA FONDA DEL JIBARITO
280 Calle Sol, Old San Juan, San Juan, Puerto Rico

One of the guys that works there, handwrites the menu every day (the daily food consists of whatever they feel like). One of the days I ate there, I had a curried goat dish that was excellent.
Also, when in Old San Juan, check out a shop called Butterfly People. It is a family business where they mount all kinds of butterflys in encased lucite displays. The prices range from $50 to thousands depending on the butterflys and the size. I get one evrytime I go to PR. The last one I got adorns my library and has these african butterflys that look like bats. Very cool.
