Missing WOW Factor

It's Friday morning and I'm waiting at the airport. I wanted to expand
on the previous post below. Yesterday we drove out to El Yunque, PR's
famed rain forrest. We parked at the bottom and started on a self tour
of the "jungle". Well, we walked and walked and walked some more. The
sites were ok. Nothing spectacular. After about 2 hours of walking
through what seemed like the Amazon jungle we reached the top. Again, it
was ok. The peak was so high we couldn't see a thing. We were in the
clouds. A litle disappointed we proceeded to work our way back down. Two
hours later we finally reached the bottom. Needless to say, we were a
little disappointed. We asked a ranger about the water falls we saw
pictures of and he said that was another trail. Great.

Before we tackled that trail, we had to eat something so we found this
great burger stand that claimed to have the best burgers. They did.
After that we hiked the other trail. A little more exciting but still
not worthy of a wow. Here are a few phone picts. The better quality ones
are below in the previous link. Plane's boarding. Gotta go. More later
