PR does have the only tropical rain forest in North America, whereas the others are temperate. The biggest difference is temperate - rain forests closer to the equator are warmer and known as tropical whereas rain forests closer to the arctic are cooler and known as temperate.

Loving the Hoh Rain Forest!

We spent a week there and it wasn't long enough. Next time, we are staying in the Old San Juan Hotel, where the Rat Pack used to stay. The lobby is insane, we spent an entire afternoon and evening hanging out there. We didn't get any pictures there (we didn't know what to expect) but next time, we will.

This thread is making me itch for a vacation!!

I enjoyed the "El Conquistador Resort" down in Fajardo, Puerto Rico a year ago. We took a rental jeep down to the rain forest and made it out to San Juan. I agree - it's pretty awesome.
