Loved the photos of Dawn Beach. That's what it was like when we stayed there (maybe 1982?).

And the old airport---when you left the plane and the hot air caressed your face as you walked across the runway to the small building. That was so great!

Back in the early '80's flying AA, had a mandatory stop in San Juan for fuel. The plane couldn't be fully fueled in SXM because it would have been too heavy to make the accent over the mountain so they used just enough to get it to PR. The runway wasn't long enough.
