La Romana - a glimpse to the local life and more rain

As we mentioned in our previous post, we went to La Romana as our last place in DR. After 5 nights, we noticed that we should've listened to Chantal and went to Bayahibe instead. We had thought that La Romana would have more to offer and that Bayahibe's attractions would be only through resort bookings. Well, La Romana was not really a nice city to stay in. The city was dirty and it looked like it would be falling apart. People in the city looked grumpy and behaved like they would not have any interests in the world. We don't know how it really is, but we heard that it's very difficult to form relationships with the local people and that they are often very lazy. :/

Interesting-looking buildings in La Romana

Action, waterfalls and life in Las Terrenas

Hola chicos! :)

Time for some action and enough with boring beach life! :P We got a reminder in Las Terrenas about being careful in the ocean. We tell more about it later, but here's one picture ;)

From Cabarete we took a bus, almost a guagua (local minibus) to Las Terrenas. It was a semi big bus and it wasn't that cold as the bus from Santo Domingo to Cabarete. But...the driver was probably deaf as rest of the Dominicans, because they have some thing about listening to music as loud as possible. Yes, we had the pleasure to listening to bachata and salsa really loud the whole way :P
