366 Pictures: #330 Cobbles

Photobucket

Many of the streets in Old San Juan are cobblestone. They're a different type of cobblestone than I was used to seeing. These are blue cobblestones made from the ballast of Spanish galleon and they're over 500 years old. They're gorgeous and they really add to the ambiance of Old San Juan. Below is a good example of this.

Those are cool cobbles - but I'd want to make it pedestrian only, yo protect them!
