PR: Day 3 - Beach Day!

Friday was pretty chill for the most part. We decided to stay in and chill for the most part of the afternoon. From our balcony, we saw a manatee and possible barracuda swim in the bay near the shore.

About 3pm or so we decided to go check out a local beach. Luquillo Beach was about a 15-minute drive from where we are staying. The cost to get into the beach was $5.50 for the carload.

I've been to a few beaches and this has to be one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been to. The beach was tucked behind a sand bar which allowed the swimming and the beach more enjoyable. As you are out in the water looking back on the shore you had El Yunque mountain in the background.  #gorgeous

Water was a little chilly at first but when you got used to it, it was fantastic. It was so nice being able to get out on some water and just float for a while.

I don't know if it was because we went out on a Friday afternoon or what, but the beach wasn't as crowded as I had expected. They aren't like the beaches in Destin Florida. If I were to guess, within the 1/2 mile of beachfront, were maybe 100 people.

We left about 5pm since both of us are ghostly white. I didn't want LouAnna to burn and be miserable for the rest of the trip. She got a little sun but nothing bad. I can't tell if I got any sun or not. Either way, it was nice to be able to soak up some vitamin D again.  Thinking of you all at home in Indiana.

LouAnna wanted some spaghetti for dinner. We quickly made dinner and settled in for the night. Fajardo comes to life on Friday nights! Music from several of the bars down below could be heard in our place as if they were RIGHT NEXT DOOR.

It wasn't too long after dinner was over, I decided I had enough fun and excitement for the day. I felt like I had hit a brick wall and my head was starting to get stuffy. Feels like a head cold coming on. But that won't keep me down while in Puerto Rico!
