Mr. Pib and I recently went on a trip around the northern coast and Saman?. I had plans of writing a trip report, as it is I have much to say and am too lazy to type that much, so I will make it short and just add some pictures and some comments.

Street of Cabarete
We have been to Cabarete many times, the last in the summer of 1999, and we notice it's changed, gladly for the better. The town is cleaner, the beach is clean and well-maintaned. The vendors wear uniforms and are polite and nice. The town as a whole, and specially the beach has a better ambiance than 3 yrs. ago. The restaurants have adopted the architecture and materials that better reflect the feeling of "surfer's town" that they want to portray. We will definitely be back.
Playa Dorada Golf Course
I really don't have much to say about this. I will let the golfers work it out
Samana
Looks pretty much the same as last time I visited. Only cleaner, and deserted in the midst of the low tourist season.
