Day 32 - Sunday - Grampa Gramma come to visit

After a nice breakfest of beans toast eggs and BACON onboard this morning, we went out for a run..  back to the boat for the normal couple maintenance jobs...then showered up to start the day.
Walked over to the Hilton, and registered my parents.. they arrive today.
The room wasnt ready yet (at 1pm)..  my parents dont land until 6pm.. but I asked..
"Any chance of a drink at the bar while we wait for the room"... sure... rum coupons!!
Over to the swim up bar (us on the dry side!).. beeper goes off.. room is ready..  quick drinks then up to the room.. its fabulous..
A view of Allie's dive shack, the beach, ocean.. beautiful.
Back to the boat for a quick dinner.. then to the bus!!
Humm.. this bus system isnt the best all the time... wait wait wait.. the Puerto Rican way they say... 40 minutes I give up.. but then of course the bus comes..  we run to the next stop.. and get on..
All locals on the bus.. this is fun.. we ride all through town.. then out of town.. no tourists on this bus!!!
All of a sudden a GUN BLAST !!! on the bus..
Hang on..  maybe not.. one guy got one with toy ballon hat.. it exploded.. everyone starts laughing..
Getting into some bad neighbourhoods.. but everyone onboard is happy.. its still pretty cool.   We talk to some of the people on the bus..  and then our stop comes up.
We almost missed it.. people started shouting to us...  something in Spanish.. no idea
One guy knows english... "This is your stop..."...  Gracias!!!
Next bus never comes..  we are running a bit late..  grabbed a cab.. over to the airport..
Gramma and Grampa are just there..  perfect.. in the cab and back to their hotel.
Got them setup...  took them for a bit to eat and turned in for the night!
