Having lived in the Samana peninsula and in particular around the Las Terrenas region, I always deemed Samana the most beautiful part of the DR. However looking at pictures of Jaracoba and my Dominican friends speaking of the beauty of Barahona ,makes me realize there are still there are many places I need to visit within this beautiful island (Haiti included)

I find the variety of birds, trees, and plants more varied in the mountains than on the coast, although each area has it's own beauty.

I agree definitely the wildlife that tends to live in around a mountain region is more varied and a lot more interesting. It
may be because mountains being more inaccessible to predators and other dangers we tend to have this type of biodiversity.Altitude must play a part too. Another thing altogether the Tainos used to seek refuge in a lot of the mountainous regions from the conquistador's and just looking at a mountain is very awe inspiring.

The only real predators in the DR are humans. Thankful the Dominican government has had the foresight to set aside large areas to protect that biodiversity and water sources. Now if Dominicans could just manage to put the same effort into keeping the environment clean as they do their cars.

BOB,...Your constant posting of Dominican women/girls here on DR1, I find distasteful !
I think you just do it out of pride in Dominican Beauties.
I can understand that!
I would like for everyone to see MY Beautiful sons & daughters, but I DON'T post their photos, or any other children either!
It it just ain't RIGHT!

We've been over this before-Bob Saunders knows the rules and is staying within the boundaries with his posts, so no problems.

Let's all amicably move along now...

it tastes like silly putty with sugar and flour mixed in.

There are also new varieties being developed in Taiwan. The atemoya or "pineapple sugar-apple", a hybrid between the Sugar Apple and the Cherimoya,
