The next day, we got up and out the door by 9am to hopefully beat the crowds to El Yunque National Forest, the only tropical rain forest in the United States. We first stopped at the lookout tower, and then headed onto an easy hike that led to a two-tiered waterfall. We were so glad we went when we did: when we got to each parking area, pool, or waterfall, there were a few people, but not too many that they spoiled the ambience or made it hard to get pictures. But on our way back down, there were crowds of people!
After another quick hike, we drove back to our apartment and then spent the afternoon at the beach and out to dinner! It was a pretty perfect day.
