Hey Dick!
Well... Puerto Rico is pretty much my second home. Half of the time I was working at a family's gas station, and half of the time I was in the beach surfing some nice waves 
Had fun, like always, and will be going back in a couple of months.
BTW- What are "Champurrado"? Ive never heard that word. Sounds like Mexican word to me...

GAbe, I thought you might speak Spanish, but your response indicates, otherwise. No wionder you didn't answer my "good will" message when you went! Champurrado is a chocolate pudding type of desert that, along with "Bunuelos", (flour tortillas, that have been cooked in syrup), is a favorite Mexican Holiday food. Delicious!!! Glad you had a good time with your family, and the girls,no doubt!
Dick

Dick... I speak, write and read perfect spanish. Just that "champurrado" is not a word I have ever heard before. As I said, I think it is a Mexican word, and not one used in Puerto Rico.
No creo que recibi el mensaje que me enviastes antes de yo ir a Puerto Rico. Estoy seguro que te hubiese respondido si hubiese visto tu mensaje. Pero gracias por el mensaje de buena suerte... voy a ver si se fue al folder junk mail, y te dire si de verded lo recibi.

Hey luv, let's take the lift to the foyer of your block of flats, go to the place down the street and get some take-away bangers and mash, or maybe a starter and a sarnie.
What did he say??
He said:
Hey babe, let's go take the elevator to the apartment lobby, go to the place down the street for some takeout sausage and mashed potatoes, or maybe an appetizer and a sandwich.
Why the brits have an expression for sausage and mashed potatoes is beyond me. But I bet some of ours are just as strange to them!
