Gorgeous! Love the tank pictures.

Puerto Ricans love to tag everything . The tank would have been awesome, but atleast we know the graffitti artist "hearts" Lucy.

That is part of the appeal to me.... it gives it color and more dimension then a plain old rusty tank with seaweed. Love how you captured it with your camera.

My ex served his mission in Puerto Rico, he was always going to take me and show me his favorite places. He loved it there. I loved the Puerto Rican rice and beans he would make. Maybe someday I will still get to visit.

I am going to Puerto Rico in three weeks for a cave rescue seminar. I went once in 2006 but this will be the first trip to Borinquen for my wifey. Excited for her to see El Morro and El Yunque. Thanks for the photos! Gettin' psyched already...

excellent shots.
Reminds me of my trip in 2008. I stayed there during Thanksgiving week.

We went scuba diving also but my underwater camera stopped working right before we saw some cool stuff I would have taken a picture of and posted here i.e. turtle, lionfish, manta, etc...

I would for sure check out Juan Diego Falls. It was maybe 30 min (stopping to take tons of pics along the way) Really it is unpublished (not anymore DOH) I found info on it from really only one webpage and even then the instructions werent the best! Here is the link for that site. The site says there is a sign, we didnt see any sign but there was an obvious trail. There will be a series of pullouts (three I believe) after Coco Falls but before La Mina/Big Tree trailhead. We parked at the last pullout and it is the last creek/stream/river (whatever you want to call it) before the steep hill to La Mina/Big Tree.

That tank is bad ass. We need some tanks rotting in the desert....
