So it's been hard doing without some of the things I enjoy: coffee, transportation, and clean floors.
Check out this pic of an entrance to a walmart inside of the Plaza del Sol mall.
I was feeling withdraw from my daily coffee routine and so I went in search of a coffee maker. I found one at the local Walgreens, purchased some strange Puerto Rican coffee that smelled like feet and the next morning enjoyed a tasty cup of coffee (surprisingly it tasted MUCH better than it smelled).
Lack of any sort of device that uses wheels as a mode of transportation was making my feet very unhappy, quite rebellious actually. So, I took the train to Bayamon and purchased a shiny new "bicicleta". I had to get another card to bring it on the train, which brings the total amount of cards that I have in my pocket and in my wallet to 16. I'm almost to a full deck. I bought the most beastly, gargantuan lock I could find. I don't want anyone stealing my nice, shiny, spiffy bike. I plan to utilize this wonder of modern technology to explore the concrete jungle that is San Juan. I'm really looking forward to exploring around OLD San Juan.
The floors in my room were quite gross that I think the cockroaches even wear flipflops to walk across it. I bought the necessary supplies to SCRUB the tainted, grotesque, not 'doctor recommended' floor. After a half hour of scrubbing it still looks like the floor of a subway station bathroom, however, at least it feels clean to walk on.
On a separate note, did you know that a gallon of milk here is $6?
