Ports of call

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

We didn't do a lot here. Basic shopping and then back on the ship. The port has been modernized since I was last here. Very nice. We didn't encounter any aggressive sales types.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

Nice historic port. We took the grandkids and walked around, the Fort is within walking distance of the ship. Son and daughter in law did a rum city tour. They were disappointed.
