Vacation Countdown

San Juan, Puerto Rico! Only 18 days to go.
After being married almost 13 years (in September), we are finally taking a real vacation just the two of us!
I think we agreed to stay at the Hotel El Convento (a converted Convent turned 4 star hotel) My other half was seriously considering staying at a Howard Johnson to save money, I pointed out we were only looking at a $70 difference for the 4 nights we are there (we learned that sales tax + hotel tax + service tax = a whopping 18.81%) I know it's a little more expensive, but the hotel has it's history and architecture as well so I think of it as part of the experience; preferred over a cheap hotel chain with the look and feel of anywhere USA.
So planning for this trip is taking more than I first planned, but I am looking forward to it.
God is so good!!
