Our kids’ passport renewals finally came back, so you know what that means… we’ve thrown the proverbial dart at a map and ditched the U.S.! Well, sort of. This week, we’re in the Caribbean cultural cauldron of Puerto Rico.

Today, we're in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. We're actually staying about 30 minutes east of here, but we had to come into town to try some of the top sites and bites in the oldest city on U.S. soil. So let's start devouring on this walking food tour!

The British Virgin Islands are some of the most beautiful Caribbean islands in existence. We know because we just returned from a week on Scrub Island in the BVI island nation.

Private islands are the ultimate indulgence for the rich and famous. And when we spent a week at Francis Ford Coppola’s Turtle Inn resort in Belize last year, the staff told us about Coral Caye—his private island that’s just a half hour boat ride off the coast. And when they said our family could have it all to ourselves for 3 days, we knew we had to see if the secluded beach life is all it’s cracked up to be.

On our first day at sea for our 5-day, private yachting trip through the Exumas island chain in The Bahamas, our trusted captain and guide took us to "Iguana Island" and the famous drug-running airplane wreckage off Norman's Cay. And what an exciting start to our voyage these adventures were!
