This was another day that we chose to wake up late. Unlike yesterday, the main dining room was not open for lunch. So, we went to the Mexican restaurant onboard to get our first meal of the day. And, as expected, it was yummy. RQS noted that the tacos were as good as the local taco joint in her neighborhood - they were that good. As for me, I knew the tacos were good, but was underwhelmed by the burritos - too much cilantro for my taste. At least, the flan was as good as expected.
By now, the crowds were off the ship, so we left the ship a little after 2 pm. On our way off the ship, one lady had a problem getting her scooter over the lip separating the carpeted from the non-carpeted area of the 4th floor. So I did the helpful thing, and got her front wheel over the lip, and the driving wheels would do the rest. Next, there was another person in a scooter in front of us. People weren't making way for him, so I bellowed out "Make Way! A scooter is coming down the ramp." (It didn't help that they closed down one of the gangways to re-provision the ship. We'd have been off the ship in half the time.) Once the scooter was lifted onto the downward ramp, getting off the ship was easy.
Now on dry land, the heat and humidity started to get to us. We walked a little through the older part of San Juan, and then headed back to the ship for dinner. Sadly, our new friends may have chosen a later dining time, so that dinner wouldn't feel rushed. For us, today was our quickest dinner, as we were out of the dining room in less than 90 minutes.
