Bruce - Thank you!
Those are great pictures. My favorites were
1. The first boy with a chicken and a smile to die for.
2. The first bent bent palm tree picture - awesome - (im sure we will be taking lots of bent palm tree pics lol)
3. The girl jumping into the pool
4. The boy playing in the waves - priceless!
Your wife looks very happy there and She looks like such a nice woman.
I realized I have never seen a picture of you - is that white man with a black woman you by any chance? Handsome guy!
Ah so you son likes the DR - OT - that is a good sign - I've wanted to go to St Kitts Ever since I first heard about it in this song back when I was in high school.
It looks like we are going to get to go there this summer. We will be in an all inclusive (Hard Rock Resort) for a few nights and we will have a few days to do something different.
I'm trying to figure out what the "different" thing will be. The tour sounds like a good idea Bruce -what were the highlights? I don't know if we should stay in Punta Cana or venture elsewhere.
OT - please ask your son if there is a "Must See" place in the DR.
Everyone I talk to stayed in all inclusives. My brother took his family down there some years ago. One day he and his oldest daughter "escaped" the resort. (My Brother is very adventurous - he was one of those early travelers to Negril 40 odd years ago) They found a guy who gave them a tour and they had a great time . The only drawback was they stopped at some roadside place to eat and my niece ended up with a terrible case of food poisoning. She had to go on an IV.
Unfortunately - this is the only first hand account I have of the DR beyond the all inclusive walls.
