But if you get a dose of the Brad Pitts you'll not be saying that.

Yeah true if you've been before, and can be just pure R&R but just seems a bit of a waste.

Wtf is with all the don't drink the water?! There are big obvious signs in the bathroom that say, don't drink the water. You needn't worry, you are duly warned wherever you stay of what you shouldn't though. As far as Punta Cana goes, its very nice, the beaches are calm and the water is clear. I would recommend day trips to Bavaro, or to the capital if they offer them (depending on how long you are staying). I would definitely consider the dune buggy/atv trips, they are pretty fun. While in Bavaro, make sure you try out the local cuisine (or anywhere else, just go outside the hotel for better food). If you feel adventurous, you can always try the rum spiced with turtle penis and other sea creatures hehe. Whatever you do, just make sure you don't just stay in the hotel. You'll get bored after a couple of days.

theresa not ghostly pale...is this possible?!

the water ain't radioactive. chill. just don't drink it. you can brush your teeth fine and bathe just fine.

you'll be visiting the basically most beautiful and touristy part of the country. i wouldn't recommend coming to the capital, no point. you're at the best place there is to be, and since it's a tourist area, operates all the time. us locals and our establishments have an enforced 2am curfew, so the nightlife here in the city is basically dead. if you wanna catch a gig, let me or Ivan know more specifically when you're here, and we'll let you know whats up, see if there's anything worth catching. it'll probably be more trouble than it's worth i think.

otherwise, have fun, enjoy the beach, the people are generally nice, BUT don't get duped like the dumb tourists. they'll try and sell you trinkets worth dirt for preeetttyyy hefty prices if they see you'll buy into it.

well, if its party she's looking for a trip to the capital and you boys will probably show her a good time anyways. screw the curfew, by some transformadores and party like its 1999.


Posted by Inertia on Jan-28-2008 06:58:

blah, my stomach isn't one for transformadores anymore. yeah, i know, pussy, but i had to stop it. that shit was killing me...

not to say i wouldn't get an extra viejo for old times sake.


Posted by Sushipunk on Jan-28-2008 07:27:

Transformadores?


Posted by chucho on Jan-28-2008 07:50:

it must be the name of a shot


Posted by Inertia on Jan-28-2008 09:00:

nah, it's what you call a certain sized jug of rum

Cross the border into Haiti. I'm sure you'll love it there:

How far can it be? The country is like 200 miles from one end to the next right? Hell I've driven 1000 miles each way to Florida and back in a weekend before.

Apparently my resort is about 6 hours drive from Ivan.


Posted by Ivand on Jan-28-2008 13:40:


thats a transformador

anyway, yeah, theresa will be in what basically is the best part of the country. And theres a 2:00am curfew in all not tourist zones. Also I doubt theres any gig worth going in that time so lets see.

You should be able to drive to one end of the country and back in that time. Or are there no highways running to the resort area?

yeah, it's the infrastructure (or lack thereof) of the island. Poor roads, meandering along make conditions much slower than the conditions most of us are used to. Even in europe some spanish islands are such that they have 1 or 2 main roads and no coastal roads between resorts 3-5km apart, it takes a long drive to get from a to b that way. A boat on the otherhand

well, basically theres a two hours drive from santiago (where i live) to santo domingo (the capital) and from there to punta cana is a 3 to 5 hours drive.

well, the road infrastructure between the main cities isnt that bad, but it does gets tricky in some places.

Yeah, I guess I take for granted that I live 4 miles from an interstate that allows 70+mph travel to pretty much wherever I want to go (unless it's rush hour lol then I'm going 10mph)

Mountains and no highways = long time to travel

that's not fair
u got holiday


Posted by GTS3gEclipse on Jan-28-2008 18:04:

I went when i was in high school and just relaxed all day by the beach and drank all night. My youngest brother (who was like 10) loved the beach cuz it was topless. We did sum fun stuff like horseback riding on the beach and parasailing. Just find other people your age to hang out with there and it'll be fun.

My flight leaves tomorrow!

I am sick as shit with some sort of flu, and it blows massive chunks cause I feel garbage. I was given a bunch of antibiotics today though, so hopefully those will kick in ASAP.

One thing I hate about traveling is my paranoia that I am forgetting something. I think I have everything I need though. I hope.
