I thought we were not allowed to talk American politics on DR1

Ok, I thought it was something other than political. I forget how angry people are in the US.

I was more impressed about the fact the DR and Luis were so integral in this award. Why would you want to bury her?

I am not religious at all but this guy seems like a good fellow. American who spent years in Peru. Nice.

She's a treasure. She makes the US proud. It's great the DR can host such a prestigious event.

I take the bus as it cheaper. It sucks. It's not door to door, it can be a bit much on your first day and it helps a lot to have Spanish. Many tourists don't have the time or the patience to bus it. They want to get to the hotel and have that first drink as fast as possible. Every minute is...

Lou was a Sosua legend. He started with a bar on the beach and then moved onto Pedro Clisante. Was a fixture for so many years. Always a great host and a great guy. RIP Lou.

She's still missing?

Lots of people have opinions about the beach they don't go to.

You have a right but they will hassle you until you leave. Less if you are a tourist. I thought access needs to be provided? I could be very wrong about that.

In the Novellas?

They pay enough, they get the beach. The law is selective.

They'll be in the DR soon.

I actually think it is their goal. Make it ugly, make people not want to go. Starve the businesses out. They know it will be many years until anything is built. Time is on their side.

This is what I think they should work on before all this stuff. The water, electricity and the roads. 100% Everything else comes after.

It's my favorite part of the beach but many that are staying in Sosua never venture down that far. Cruise ship explorers stop for a beer and a few trinkets?

Yes. I concur. The plazas being successful are not even a concern to them They would rather they fail, they are built to fail. Their goal was to get everything off the beach proper with as little access as possible legally and to make it undesirable for visitors.

Almost like they want the plazas to fail. Almost like they want the beach to be devoid of beachgoers. Almost like they want to build condos.

It's all about money. Always is. People don't matter one whit.

I get the feeling this thread is going to get shut down.
