| One day I was visiting a community discussion board and came across a member’s request for more information, on what attractions were near where they were staying. I was amazed by one of the response that went like this “Other than golf and the beach there really was nothing much to do in that place“ Puerto Rico is only one hundred miles long by 35 miles wide, in view of this you can drive to just about any part of the Island in one day. You can pickup a map in any Walgreens store on the island! |
