ktinnc Posted October 11, 2013 Author #104 Share Posted October 11, 2013 What a fun review so far, really enjoying it. We sailed this route on the Victory last year and loved it! We also spent the weekend pre-cruise in Old San Juan - lucky you got to stay at the El Convento (we stayed around the block at the Hotel Plaza something) lol. I loved staying in Old San Juan, so much to see and do. We went to the Flamenco show at Barrachina that Saturday night and I took my Dad to Sunday Morning Mass at the Cathedral (in Spanish). What a treat! Can't wait to read more about your trip!! Thank you :) I'm glad you're enjoying it! I'm a little jealous you got to see the flamenco show - in my head when I planned out every detail of the trip I was supposed to get to see that show! haha Also I planned to go to Mass...but as you'll read in today's posts..missed that too. So I guess I just need to go again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktinnc Posted October 11, 2013 Author #108 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I am thoroughly enjoying your review and your gorgeous pictures!We just booked this same cruise for next year, so I am really interested in your impressions. In my "youth" I spent some time in San Juan (and other parts of Puerto Rico) and have lovely memories of enjoying a pina coladas in the El Convento courtyard!:p Thank you for the kind words! You will enjoy this cruise so much - it's just incredible. The ports are so amazing! I wish I was going again next year - but ya never know..maybe we will :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so do you remember what day? We are going on this cruise in December. Would love to see this and take some pictures.[/quote'] Hi! I'm not sure if they did - wish I would've seen it if they did.

ktinnc Posted October 11, 2013 Author #120 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Doing this itinerary in January. What type of camera did you use? We're currently shopping for a new one and your pictures are great! I was waiting for that question..... I used numerous cameras but keep in mind the camera is just a tool :) These photos aren't just right out of the camera... I used my iphone for some.... my Canon 5d mark ii for some and my Olympus TG2 for some.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktinnc Posted October 11, 2013 Author #123 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I am really enjoying your reveiw. We decided to do this cruise for our 10th anniversary, June 2014. Last time we cruised thru San Juan it was a holiday and the forts was closed. So I am so excited about this time. I am excited for the rest of the review. we did it for our 10th anniversary too - although we went a year late..haha. Hopefully the govt won't be shut down anymore and the forts will be back open by the time u go ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktinnc Posted October 11, 2013 Author #124 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Thank you for all of the great info and pictures. We'll be in San Juan for 3 days pre-cruise next month for our 8 day Conquest from SJU to Miami. oh I'm jealous! I bet that will be a fun one!
