| Arriving in San Juan, Puerto Rico. |
 |
| Unlike many other parts of the world, the people of San Juan had no precious metals to use in decorating their churches and cathedrals. They distinguished their churches with paint to show their affection for the church. |
 |
| Exteriors of all buildings in Old San Juan must fit the historical facade requirements. Interiors are often modern and updated. |

| A inside look at the City Hall of San Juan and the area allotted to the Mayor. |
 |
| The Cathedral in San Juan is one of three Catholic churches that has a crucifix that uses a copy of Christ based on the Shroud of Turin (physical size of Christ and face as preserved on the shroud). |
 |
| San Juan is one island in the Puerto Rico archipelago, but it is surrounded by walls that vary in thickness (up to 70 feet wide) for protection. |
 |
| A statue that celebrates the culture of the three groups that formed the Puerto Rico community. |
 |
| The port of San Juan is right downtown. Of course the island is only 1 x 3 miles and can easily be walked. |

| Readying the ship for departure. Note the ship's bridge extends out on both sides of the ship to aid in docking. |
