    • This huge gorgeous lighthouse is definitely a spot you want to visit if you ever stop by Santo Domingo. The view from it is gorgeous! The place is huge! I didn't get to step inside but got a peek from the outside and saw that it was beautiful... I also got to see Columbus's casket. That's right, isn't it neat? Here lies Christopher Columbus. I encourage you to visit the Columbus lighthouse if you ever drop by.

    • The Dominican Republic offers many beautiful beaches but the one that I visited was gorgeous and I loved it! It is the closest beach to Santo Domingo with a comfortable atmosphere and beautiful surroundings. Palm Trees, soft sand, and crystal water! Enjoy the breeze, the sun, and the big blue!

    • I was looking through my Dominican pictures when I came across this one, and I thought "I just have to add this one to my DR page!"

    I think this is a beautiful picture of this young boy just relaxing under the shade of the tree. Dominicans are beautiful people and they have an exciting culture with fun music and relaxing lives, from what I saw while I was there. Where i was they just hung out, basked in the sunlight, breathed in the ocean breeze. It was lovely.

    For a relaxing time, just hang out with one of these folks and before you know it, you're life will definitely seem stress free!

     haha, yes! leaving a club with a dominican friend at around 4 am, i discovered that red lights mean "maybe slow down a little as you plow through the intersection".    		TropicGirl77 Wed Aug 10, 2005 19:14 UTC
     I just LOVE those "quarter to one" rules!!! HAHA@ suffering for the Lord ... I'm sure after repenting, he has forgiven all suffering! Aloha ~

     I haven't been to the DR since I was a little girl, but I enjoyed your tips very much -- great page!    		Aurorae Thu Feb 3, 2005 22:53 UTC
     Thank you for stopping by at my HP. I love your passion for Dominican Republic, it's a place that attracts me as well, I'd love to go there, and your descriptions awake the senses, presenting that country so well.
