Watching Inauguation in San Juan
Culebra, Puerto Rico

We will be going back to San Juan from Culebra on Inauguration Day and will have about 8 hours lay over. I have been to Old San Juan a few times and know my way around. Does anyone know of a good bar, restaurant, etc. where they will be airing the swearing in of Obama?

Politics are HUGE in Puerto Rico. I would venture to say that you will be able to see it anywhere you go.

Happy Diving!

yeah but this one's special for DC'ers as PR doesn't have a vote and doesn't pay Federal income tax - we aren't represented with a vote in Congress and ARE taxed. (/hrumph)

this will probably change soon. go Eleanor! - Taxation w/o Representation no more.

ok that was my soapbox for the day.

Richard, are you from DC? We all live in the District. Dupont, Logan, U Street area. Wish we could find someone who knows of a particular place we can go Tuesday to watch the swearing in.

yeah I'm Eastern Market - I'm gonna be sipping hot cocoa in my jammies and later photographing the crowds, catching the mood.

I'd bet Debbie is right about TV coverage in SJ - and check out the thread "killing time in SJ" from a few days ago.

but I'd rather be in PR and you-tubing footage later...
