Puerto Rico Days 5-9

On Thursday morning, we headed out after breakfast to meet our friends in San Juan! I got to hang out by the pool with Hailey while the boys picked up everyone from the airport.

We started out part 2 of the trip by having lunch at the restaurant where the Pina Colada was invented.


We then went to the Fort in Old San Juan. It was beautiful, and it is pretty breathtaking to think of the history it holds.







After the Fort, the guys headed to chill while us girls went in search of souvenirs for the kiddos!


We then met up for a delicious Spanish dinner.

The next day we slept in a bit since Mark was still sick, and then met up with our friends for a day at the beach.  We ate lunch and then headed to Fajardo for stop 3 of our trip!


We unloaded and had takeout pizza to eat for dinner so we could relax and catch up!


On Saturday, we were up early. We had a private boat charter all day-and it was spectacular! 


Our guide took us to different islands throughout the day. When we got to the first, we were the only ones there! While we were exploring, we saw WHALES jumping in the ocean! We hopped in the boat and tried to get closer, but they were gone once we got out further.


Next up, everyone but me went snorkeling. I enjoyed my drink and cozy spot on the boat :)


This truly was in my top 5 days ever.


We checked out the island that the Waldorf is renting and ate lunch. Afterwards, we went to my favorite spot of the day- La Palomina. It is a teeny tiny island (think sand bar in the middle of the ocean!) We were in awe of how beautiful it was.





That night we got cleaned up for dinner and enjoyed the beautiful weather!


On our last full day, we filled up on delicious brunch food to start the day.


And then did this. Nothing! The boys played in the ocean while us girls sat in the shade, under umbrellas, and read! It was just what we needed before heading back to real life.


That night we hit up our favorite restaurant from last year one last time.


On Monday, we ate brunch and headed home to our girlies!
