Original Toronto Star caption: Fort San Cristobal; guarding Old San Juan on Puerto Rico; is a fascination for tourists to roam its ramparts and explore its passageways. There's plenty to see on the island and it can be done at moderate cost. Old San Juan itself is seven blocks by seven blocks in area and best seen on foot.

Clare and Bob Duck run Bob's Truck Stop in Campbellville for men who drove cross-country trucks, not for tourists. It's good, plain, solid food cooked to keep a trucker satisfied for the next 300 miles. Mrs. Duck says. Tourists tend to eat lighter foods like salads. Duck is a mechanic and worked in the Arctic for 13 years, taking supplies in by cat train. They opened the restaurant in January.
