Rather than look at the picture which says 'showers' look at the numbers. The CHANCE of precipitation says 30%, which means there is a 70% chance there won't be. Now if you were gambling people..........those aren't bad odds.
Yesterday we had a shower around 2 pm, it was sunny in the morning. Then from about 6 pm it rained all night. This would really not have a negative impact on your sunbathing, now would it? ;)
Also look at the future trends in your chart. You can see it is progressively improving with 'showers' going to 'cloudy' & the chance of rain coming down to 20%...........which means an 80%.........I needn't finish that, need I?
So as before, get up early, get sunbathing early in the day.........& if you need a list of activities you can undertake whilst it is raining at night, PM me ;)
Yeah.. I know. I'm just getting a little too into checking the weather. To be honest, by the time we get there, I don't suppose we will even notice too much what the weather is doing. Not long now... all packed and ready to go. Thanks again guys & gals ! XX

It's a British preocupation isn't it - worrying & talking about the weather?? We got out of that habit about 8 years ago!! You're right, you'll hardly notice the conditions as you should be having too much fun if you holiday correctly.

Give us a call or PM/e-mail via DR1 & we'll see if we can't get together for a quick one (Beer that is!!!) Which hotel are you staying at??

Don't worry about the 8 1/2 - 9 hour flight, you've got that trip to Gatwick to conquer first!! .... MUCH more hazardous!! Enjoy & hope to hear from you when you get here!! ~ Grahame.

Were here!!

It is Saturday (I think) and is is lovely.
We are staying at the Riu Bachata, and couldn't realy complain. Even though I have had the 24hr bug thing.. or maybe it was an over indulgence!!
We still sit near the pool even when it rains!
Flight was fine.. evn though all the toilets got blocked up and were therefore out of use 2hrs previous to landing at POP.
Anyway.. again thanks for your comments and suggestions.
Keep the forum going... it's a great thing.

I HOPE it was an over indulgence! Seems some Canadian companies have stopped using that hotel for the meanwhile. Hope you continue to have a great time. And well done for being cheerful through bug & rain.......they breed 'em tough in Hampshire. ;)
