Puerto Rican "Shorty-moon"

Although we were married in January 2003, neither of us had vacation time to enjoy a decent honeymoon until December 2003. Therefore, in August 2003 we spent a week in Puerto Rico as a "shorty-moon" while we waited for our more extended "real" honeymoon in December. We travelled the mainland (Arecibo, San Juan, Fajardo, El Yunque) and spent a few wonderful days on Culebra (a small island near Vieques off the east coast).
