161: Old San Juan



These pictures are also from Old San Juan. They are taken outside the remains of the old wall that goes around the old city. In the top picture, the little turret-like thing is where the Spanish guards would keep watch for enemy ships, and would attack from there as well. They were tiny little things, as the men were much smaller back then. This is why eating your fruits and vegetables and getting enough calcium is important!

160: San Juan

First, a thanks to Alfresco for not only keeping up his excellent PAD, but for using the same numbering system I do so I know what number to use on my posts when I take a hiatus!

This is a picture from Old San Juan in Puerto Rico. This is ths site of the original pier where in the 16th century the Spanish officials used to diusembark from their ships and enter into the city.

Since I made this blog an upload a picture a day, you will be seeing lots of pictures from Puerto Rico, California, and a few from Baja California as well in the next week or two.


Bonus picture! This placed in the top ten (whoohoo!!!!!!) at DPChallenge in the Beatles Challenge. Completely unexpected, but absolutely thrilling, none the less!
