Loving the winter time in Puerto Rico

A couple of weekends ago we went to the San Sebastian Street Festival in Old San Juan. It is one of the biggest festivals in Puerto Rico. We ended up driving to Guaynabo, a city near San Juan, and leaving our car at a friends house. We heard we would not be able to drive into OSJ, so we were going to take the train. We went to the train station and the line was VERY long. We ended up finding a cab driver who offered to take a bunch of us. We did that and it was quicker, and he even stopped to get us beers!


When we got to OSJ there were A LOT of people everywhere. The festival is basically music and beer. The streets are filled with people shoulder to shoulder. We stopped in a couple of the bars along the streets. Then we walked around and enjoyed the music.

This is my roommate passed out around 5 in the morning. The public transportation doesn't start until around 5 in the morning so we had to wait...We wanted to leave the festival around 4 but then we found out we couldn't so we found a bunch and waited. There were hundreds of people all over doing the same thing. It was kind of fun actually. The crazy thing was when the bus came. Everyone wanting to get on and it was a mess. It was stupid though because there were lots of buses coming. We were one of the first people in line, but one of the last on. It was along night, and after the bus we had to take a train. We ended up getting home around 7. It was a very fun and interesting night.

I took a picture of this sign because the neighborhood I live in is called "Costa Azul."
