Los Tres Ojos (The Three Eyes)
Under ground fresh water caves
Colonial City
Christopher Columbus first landed in the Dominican
Republic. Santo Domingo is the first city of the new world
and these are some of the ruins.
El Faron de Colon
This is a large light house and inside is a mausoleum
where Christopher Columbus is buried. Before Christopher
Columbus wrote a letter requesting to be buried in the Dominican
Republic. Each October they open the tomb so you can see his bones.
Each country has a room in the light house (all the US sent
was pictures and they said that the US is cheap)
Some restaurant....
We ate La Bandera Dominicana
which is rice, pinto beans (habichuela), and fried chicken. We
had 2 cokes and some fried plantanes.
This meal cost us like $40 USD. It was insane
Russ thinks they just tried to rip us off because we were tourists.
Santo Domingo LDS Temple
It is such a small world a missionary couple
came up to us and asked us where we were from
I said from Chama, New Mexico and they said "oh well maybe
you know my son Brandon" Brandon lived in Chama for several
year and we knew him and his wife. As some of you know Chama is a very
small town so it was funny to meet someone half way across the world.
This is our room at the Majestic Colonial in Punta Cana.
This place is beautiful.
These photos were taken on the beach right in front of our resort.
They have professional photographers walking around taking pictures and then
you can go look at them and select the ones you want. Call me crazy
but it cost $10 per picture on cd. I only got these 5 but there
were so many more good ones.
Snorkel face...lol
This guy was covered in glitter. It was hilarious.
