ruins

Today, the prison buildings themselves are in ruins but many of the administration buildings still remain, and have been turned into a hotel. Why anyone would want to stay here is beyond me, but it was an interesting place for a few hours’ visit. While quite beautiful from a distance (such as the deck of our ship), it’s really hot and humid, with a steep rocky path or steep stairs to the top, where the buildings are. The hotel looked like it rated maybe one star, if that, and we were warned before leaving the ship not to eat or drink anything while on the island.
