i made it!

3 missed flights and 2 days later and i made it to the sunny shores of DR. i wish i took more photos but i felt kinda self conscious acting like a tourist in the local towns so i only brought my camera out when we got to Cabarete. great vacation since i got to see it all...poverty and wealth. kinda heart wrenching but the beautiful thing was everyone kept talking about Obama! nothing but love for him everywhere! here are a few pics:


that's the main street in Cabarete. cute tourist, friendly town with boutique hotels without the crazy resorts.


the official beer of DR


the hotel we stayed at just minutes from the beach. only $45 a night and it was uber cute!


the view from our room


the walk to the beach










i had 15 giant, itchy, mosquito bites! not cool


no rain for us until the very last day. lucky!
