Going to PR is taking your life in your hands, believe me, I know. After growing up there, I'm glad I am no longer shot at, robbed, and/or ripped off.

You can cruise from NY. Better to fly to Miami though and catch the ship there.

Yeah, sure, whatever you say.

I've lived here for over five years, and worked here for over 15. I've never been shot at. I've never been robbed. The only time I get ripped-off is when I pay my taxes.

Better to fly to Miami? Going to certain parts of Miami is like putting your life in your hands. Even in good parts of Miami, people have to have their windows barred, because of all the drugs, breaking and entries and home invasions. It's like living in your own private prison.

We went to the Bahamas (paradise island) and the prices were outrageous then you cross the bridge and see all these poor people. I'll never go there again, getting robbed by the hotels and surrounding stores once was enough for me! I wouldnt care if they were giving away free flights!

Hello Jester..!
Me think that this dude was hanging out with the wrong boys at Juana Matos, Ramos Antonini, Manuel A. Pérez, or Nemecio Canales.
Or worse yet, he was making up a story.
