Hi.
Well I am back again from Punta Cana. This time I traveled with my mother and one of her friends. For my last several visits I haven't stayed in a resort, but thought it would be best for them.
Our room at the Bambu was good, we never felt cramped with having an extra bed in the room. I felt that the bathroom was a little cramped, but having hot water all the time was a plus... There was only one outlet in the bathroom and my battery charger for my camera wouldn't even fit. I had to get an adapter from the front desk, which was no problem.
We arrived on Sunday early afternoon and already there were no loungers by the pool available. No people in them just towels..very annoying. Same thing for the beach area. But had no problems the rest of the time, just get them early. For October being a low month I was surprised how busy and how
many people were there.
We did 2 excurisons and a day trip to Higuey. We did Saona Island and Jurassic Safari. Jurassic Safari was a great day out! I have been on the Monster Truck Safari and one thing I liked beter was that you didn't have the long drive to Higuey before the tour started. The true Dominican meal was very good, and the drinks were plenty. Rigo was our guide and did a really good job. I have made a photosite of my Jurassic Safari photo's to share, just go to Jurassic Safari -- created with PhotoSite.
Anyone wanting a fun day out in the countryside and a tour a little less than the others please try them..
In all it was a great trip and we laughed A LOT. I never thought traveling with my mom would be so much fun. Thank goodness she had a friend with her.
