The Bar and "get drunk, fall down" sign - Puerto Rico

The Bar and "get drunk, fall down" sign

I think I'm getting old

I stayed at the Wyndham in Old San Juan and my flight got in late. I thought we were going to experience Pinones, so I didn't eat all day. Because it was so late, all those little stands shut down and I was left with only a few choices. Kina suggested Senor Frogs because it was right behind my hotel. I had only been here for an hour, keep in mind, so even though I wasn't thrilled with the idea of going to a touristy place like Senor Frogs from my first PR meal, I went along with it. She was showing me around, afterall and I was very grateful for the company. I didn't know it was spring break still and I certainly didn't know that San Juan was a spring break destination. It was SO crowded and I felt out of place because I wasn't dressed like a whore (sorry) All I wanted was to eat but it ended up being this whole ordeal...we finally got served, I watched a lot of girls fall down drunk (which the sign at Senor Frogs states is perfectly acceptable) and after my flight, this is not the place I wanted to be in. I liked Senor Frogs in college, I suppose...but it's just not something I pictured when I pictured Old San Juan

Unique Suggestions: There's this drink...I can't remember what it is right now...a rum drink, but it also has about 6 other kinds of liquor in it. It will make you feel better. Also, just don't go in March.

Kina assured me this place is pretty good when it's not spring break...more "ethnic" is what she said. I would have preferred that over the things we had to contend with.

Fun Alternatives: There are lots of other places to go. As soon as we ate, we got out of there.
