Every time we’re in Puerto Rico, we rent bikes from Tony at Rent the Bicycle. He’s the business. His bikes run well and each has its own cute bell. A bike into Old San Juan is essential: watch the sunset, eat some mofongo, drink Sangria.

Delicious meal last night at Santaella, steps from the Santurce’s Farmer’s Market in ‘La Placita’ on the outskirts of San Juan. Open for less than a year, the restaurant is José Santaella’s first formal establishment beyond his longtime gourmet catering biz. Order the daily specials, finish with the flan. Thanks Departures for the rec!
Fort Castillo San Felipe del Morro. Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. The 16th century citadel has evolved over several centuries with the Spanish American war and then World War II. It’s magnificent, and I’m wondering, do you think anyone’s ever had their wedding here??
Our bikes parked at the entrance of the marvelous Fort Castillo San Felipe del Morro. Old San Juan, Puerto Rico.
My most excellent sister riding up to Fort Castillo San Felipe del Morro. San Juan, Puerto Rico.
We rode along the northern coast for several miles and ended up in Old San Juan. The great lawn at Fort Castillo San Felipe del Morro was a sight to behold. It also made me want to fly a kite.
A perfectly imperfect succulent at Pure and Natural, one of my fave holes-in-wall in the Condado section of San Juan, Puerto Rico. They serve delish smoothies, salads and fresh juices + play Spanish guitar tunes.
Franky’s in Old San Juan
My thrift radar goes off even on tropical islands. I stumbled upon Franky’s in Old San Juan, a vintage and prop shop with wares from the 40s, 50s and 60s. So much random cool stuff! Perfumes, records, cameras, typewriters, tiaras, chandeliers, toys, tools, furniture and my favorite – vintage seltzer bottles!!
