Yep
That's exactly what I said...As long as your parents don't have a problem with it, nobody is going to not allow you to drink. The legal age is supossed to be 16, but nobody cares about the law. Come to think of it nobody cares about any laws in the DR. I can send my 4 year old to buy me a case of beer and they would sell it to him. Just don't go crazy and get too drunk!!! Try to enjoy the beach and other things you can't find in the UK. You will have your whole life to get drunk, but probably only a few days to see this beautiful country...
Why am I preaching to a 16 year old...I should know better than that.
Anyway, have fun...
