    Finally, up to 58.75 at Caribe Express Sosua today. Had been stuck at 58.6 for weeks. It appears that the rate in Sosua is consistently lower than in other locations.

    Baby green iguanas

    Are there any pet shops that sell baby green iguanas ? Are green iguanas permitted to be sold since they can become a pest like in Florida ? Not indigenous here but could easily thrive.

    Sosúa Western Union

    Only one location in Sosua. Next closest is in Cabarete. The previous location had two or three cashiers. The new location only has room for one cashier.

    Sosúa Western Union

    Western Unión has moved as of May 1 and it is a nightmare now. One cashier only and you are forced to stand on the sidewalk on Dr. Rosen in the sun if there are more than 6 people inside. And there is always a line outside. I personally will drive to Western Union in Janet's in Cabarete...

    I buy 30 for 198 pesos and always immediately refrigerate them. Almost never a bad egg in 10 years.
