On Isla Verde, here is one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever visited. I hate now to think of the devastation wreaked on this beach by Hurricane Maria.

My travel companion was someone who enjoyed sleeping in mornings, allowing me time to do some painting. Here is the charming patio of the hotel where I stayed.

One of the more exotic destination weddings I have ever attended took place here. Certainly, in much brighter days for the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. The following was pulled from Wikipedia: The original cathedral in what was the city of Puerto Rico (changed to San Juan Bautista in 1521) was constructed from wood in 1521. It was destroyed by a hurricane and the current structure constructed in 1540, being reshaped in later centuries, the last time being in 1917.
