Reflection


          This project was very interesting because we were able to learn about different places around all of Old San Juan and the secrets each building had behind it. Some walks were quite long but the view along the way was quite impressive, with a lot of cats included along the way. We also think we were able to unite more as a group because we regularly don’t work as a team in other outside activities. Everyone was responsible with the task they had to do and we were able to keep on schedule the days we were heading to Old San Juan. We had a lot of fun doing this project and I hope you find your walk and journey through Old San Juan as entertaining and interesting as we did.
