    As a kid I lived at Ramey AFB. It is now a destination airport like San Juan where you can fly directly from Florida. There are hotels, house rentals and car rentals at the old base too so you can do the west side of the island without ever going through San Juan if you choose.
    Crash Boat Beach is a must.

    • @jamesxpri

      @@jamesxpri You know I'm reminded that looking back towards the 1500's this is why PR and some other islands have that colonial construction and the narrow roads, its because Puerto Rico, the DR, Cuba, Jamaica had fresh water so therefore the Spanish colonized them and from there on became populated the other islands no matter how popular today still get their water imported or collected as it rains

    How the plane got there: there was once a factory that was going to build planes. That was the first plane they were building that never got finished as the project was abandoned almost from its inception. The factory never took off, the plane was never completed. It was placed there as a memory of what could have been. I remember as I lived and grew up there.

      @jamesxpri  Před dnem

    • @jamesxpri
      @jamesxpri  Před rokem

      Hey Amy, I would say its pretty safe in Aguadilla and Isabela they are smaller towns than San Juan and the people are genuine for sure. As living there and experiencing day to day life as a foreigner people are very nice and welcoming. Im not sure on specific air bnbs , I do know that they are getting more expensive but if you look for one a little further away form the beach it starts to get cheaper. The air bnb's are pretty nice most of the time and clean. Are you going to visit PR soon?

      I guess the best and cheapest option is to rent a car. My grandparents told me there were trains that traveled around the island but were abandoned by the 1950s due to the introduction of automobiles. Being born and raised in PR having a train would've been a blast.

    Puerto Rico owes America big time, everytime you have a storm we bail you out. Then we find out the boss of your island hid some of the supplies we give you. Without the diesel from America you would starve. Puerto Rico needs that Hotel. For $ from us. You have no manufacturing, no jobs I know because me friend owned a chain of ice cream shops and he barely makes it. He told me your generation doesn’t go above and beyond. Build more surf camps for Americans, Puerto Rico kids …..get to work

    On a side note, and no disrespect intended, your wife/girlfriend is absolutely adorable ! She looks Asian to me, and our 17 year old daughter is Asian (adopted). It would be nice to have some friends that Mei-Lien has commonality with.
