I want to host a DO and what better place than my Awesome little Island. I no longer live there but I'm there every month for either business or pleasure. I would love for some FT flyers to join me on a weekend of relaxation, fun and good food. September is a great time of the year to visit Puerto Rico, temperatures are in the 80's, and things are back to normal after the summer break.

Hurricanes are only an issue if there is one coming, and the odds of that are very little on any specific day. Besides, the day after a hurricane, the weather is beautiful.

Have fun! Great place. ^
We went again to the Bioluminescent Bay in Vieques in January. An experience you will remember all your life. And easy to get to from SJU ... you can fly there.
For anyone going down for the Doo that has a spare day, consider adding that to your list of things to do:

Bit of info on SJU touristy stuff there on website too.
