Day five (Monday) was all travel. We were up and out of Cancun at 8:30am and arrived in Fajardo, Puerto Rico at 10pm, a long day to say the least.

First, we flew from Cancun to Miami (2hrs) and had a short layover (2.5hrs). We then jumped onto our connection and flew from Miami to San Juan (2.5hrs). From there we rented a car and drove to the east coast of Puerto Rico to a small port town called Fajardo (1hr).

We arrived at the Fajardo Inn in the middle of a rain and lightening storm, not a good sign for our planned beach-going activities. The rooms were hostel-esque but it did the trick for the seven hours we were there.

On Tuesday, we're up bright and early to catch a ferry boat to Vieques island.
If you are routed through MIA on your return, be sure to hit the La Carreta Restaurant in terminal D for amazing Cuban food...spicy beef, rice, beans, and plantains - I'm excited just typing about it. Looking forward to the next updates from Vieques island!
