Channel: Mena_Adubea
Date: 2021-03-28

Soooooooo, was it a crazy trip - yes! Did we have fun? Yes!  We spent a lot of money, so best believe we were sure to enjoy ourselves.
COMMENT AND LMK IF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN ANS WHAT YOUR EXPERIENCE WAS LIKE IN PR.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
》spent a lot of money in PR, more than we expected. 
》RT ticket was around $350, nonstop, from Houston
》there are 3 diff taxes at restaurants that sometimes adds up to $20 and that doesn’t include gratuity. It was expensive!! Some meals, even at lunch, were around $60+
》racism was evident, in our experience and unfortunate. Def got more clarity while on the yacht, but still unfortunate and certainly didn’t appreciate it. Terrible that, from what I was told, dark skinned blacks have been tearing things up. Do I think all Puerto Rican's are racist? NO. Were we mistreated by some? Yes.
》despite the issues we had in the hotel and with customer service, overall, we had fun. We made sure we had fun - so overall it was fun!
