After looking at the pictures I am sure you can tell that Adam enjoyed the surfing the most and of course my favorite part was lying on the beach reading.
Old San Juan
We spent 2 nights in Old San Juan. We were very impressed with how clean the city was. Old San Juan is very fancy and has a lot to offer. Our favorite part about Old San Juan was the old Spanish fort. Pic 1 - is of me in a store shopping, Adam thought this was very typical of me. Pic 2 - eating breakfast and checking out the guidebook Pic 3 - Houses in Old San Juan. Overall Puerto Rico was not as colorful as I had imagined.

Castillo San Felipe del Morro
The other fort (in the distance) in San Juan - a lot of locals gathered to fly kites
Rincon, Puerto Rico
Adam and I stayed in Rincon for the majority of our time in Puerto Rico. We stayed at Coconut Palms, right on the beach. Beautiful hotel with an outdoor kitchen.Pictures from Coconut Palms (where we stayed)
We loved cooking and making coco locos in the outdoor kitchen - FYI, it is very difficult to open a coconut.
Surfing in Rincon
The Rincon area had great waves
MISC.
Some random - beautiful beach near Jobos Beach (driving back to San Juan from the West Coast).
Adam eating an empanadilla - absolutely delicious street food - you can find them filled with shrimp, fish, beef, chicken, crab, conch, etc... We paid only $1.25 for this one, yummy! The typical food in Puerto Rico is the Empanadillas and the Mofongo. Mofongo is mashed plantains - usually served in a broth or stew, very tasty.
