Sorry that you had a bad impression about your visit, but a very important goal after the storms was to restart the tourism industry ASAP, and that’s what you saw. Most of the damage on the island was up in the mountains. San Juan fared quite well, and its harbor is huge and can handle eight cruise ships while at the same time handling cargo on the non-tourist piers. If those eight cruise ships hadn’t been there, the disaster for many people would have been worse. Above all, we needed jobs, and that’s what you, unwittingly perhaps, helped provide. And thank you, btw.
Next visit am I going to meet people in villages and get a real Puerto Rican meal? This year, the cruise I’m taking isn’t stopping in PR. I try NEVER to take a tour where I’m a disconnected tourist.
