We rented a car for a week and traveled the D.R.
The most interesting part was the motorcycles and scooters. They put EVERYTHING on them. It became a game trying to get pictures of the crazy things that they carry.
This scooter has a big bag of feed and two people. The guy in the back is sitting on top of the feed, swinging his feet.
This one has 3 people and the back 2 are drinking beer.
There is a scooter under there somewhere.
Later we had to wait for the cattle to travel through town so we could continue on our trip. This was one of the places that we stayed the night at. It was right on the beach and owned by a French guy.
The view from our room.
Another night we had trouble finding a room, we ended up staying here.
They had a little garages attached to your room. And a guy would come and open the door for you.
Later we found out that they rent the rooms by the hour and the garages are to hide your cars. Interesting to say the least. We didn’t sleep well either. But as Ryan aptly put it “ Your not supposed to sleep in a whore house.”
The entire trip was memorable. None of us speak very good Spanish. And we had no idea where we were going. But we still managed to see some interesting things and have some fun.
The salt mines.Motorcycle Ferry.
Road side cafes.
And ever changing scenery.
It was a beautiful trip but we were glad to get back home.

Very cool road trip indeed. Love the scooter game, bet you were glad to have a car instead of 3 of them. Hurricane season has been slow, a blessing for you "Islanders". I looked at your anchorage on google earth the other day. Looks pretty cool, very protected for sure.
Keep the blog going, may seem mundane to you, but us "dreamers" love it!
Cheers,
