Lets not over look the lines of families streaming into Sosua and filling the churches with paying parishioners.

work around is to have a Dominican driver. Safe from the horrors of the DR justice system in the event of an accident. When we are stopped I am just the gringo passenger who does not speak Spanish. I just wish my wife was not so generous in her hand out to the cops. My street ends at a busy...

a pure revenue source. Never any intention to punish anyone. Wonder what percent makes it into government coffers. They will not take credit or debit cards, only cash. One time all I had was a $100 bill and they did not have change so they let me through gratis. Caused me to wonder what...

WHO said it and Fox News reported it so it must be true, DR is the most dangerous country in the world for drivers. We top Venezuela, Thailand, Iran, Nigeria, and South Africa to name a few. People personally think a lot of things but thinking don't make it true. In the DR when you drive its...

is there something about Corona beer for Dominicans in the US. All the Dominicans I know in the US drink only that brand unless of course Presidente is available?

Eating out of bowls will work when you are there to watch them. Middle of the night and a big chunk of bologna or hamburger is a different thing. Other issue is if you have more than one dog the first one to discover the poisonous treat will gobble it down so the other one does not get it. The...

Near impossible to train a dog not to eat scraps on the ground, they just do not have that much self control when you are not around to watch them. Poisoners use meats that are impossible to resist. Only sure way is to use a dog muzzle that prevents them from eating scraps. A dog poisoner is...

you left off the communicable disease spread by chickens and the inevitable flies. I like eggs just fine but chickens belong on chicken farms. People are attracted to the economics of a free egg supply and I understand that but most have never heard of salmonella, listeria or e coli. Backyard...

The families carrot is worn out from over use during the working girls movement. You need to come up with another wonderful benefit resulting from the fabulous new plan that no one, other than you, knows the first thing about. Interesting how you support the unknown. If this plan was worth a...

I had the same feeling.

"with this project everybody wins".??????????? And what is this project that has us all winning? I get the same feeling when a Nigerian prince wants to give me money. Somethings just wrong here.

How about down to the end of Pedro Clisante with the girls? They could save the city twice. About the only thing public here is the ceremony. Exactly what is planned seems to be a big secret, wonder why that is. What's that newer word in politics, ah, transparency, here it's DR style, opacity.

As I remember it was about four years ago the sand washed out and left bare slippery rocks that made it dangerous to try and cross. When it first happened I thought the city would come in with trucks of sand and replenish the beach since it was no longer a beach in its present condition and due...

Lord save us from the Dominican justice system. It is no wonder here that people are reluctant to call the cops. A few years back a gringo I know sold his sailboat to a Dominican who never transferred the boat into his name. The boat was subsequently used to carry Dominicans to Puerto Rico...

I remember the pretty drawings. So, does anyone know if we have any pretty drawings showing the wonderful new beach?
