Travel Log 002: This Super 8mm film documents my Aunt and Uncles vacation to Puerto Rico in March of 1969 and also St. Maarten in March of 1971. Scenes of the Bacardi Rum factory and El Morro Castle/Fortress are seen as well.

Que bonito y tranquilo ese Puerto Rico de los 60", las casas de madera de tabla en la montaña, habia pobreza, pero mas tranquilidad, no habia mucho automovil ni tanta urbanizacion. Thank you for this video.
Thank you so much for this footage. This is truly a gem of a video. It's a moment of the post caught in film that all can see if they so choose. It's so incredible to see Puerto Rico the same year I was born 1969. Wow!
That was so nice to see. I was recently in PR for vacation with my husband and daughter first time for them and they loved it we are planning our trip back. ❤

In 1969 PUERTO RICAN society was not as disfunctional as it is in 2024. Lots of ethical and .oral values have been lost. Family unity is not what it used to be. Respect for the elderly is no longer day. Political corruption is now part of every day life.
