hi all,
my boyfriend and i will be in the domincan republic for nine days beginning this friday and i'd love to get recommendations you might have for santo domingo, bayahibe and las galeras -- and anywhere in between. any special restaurants, or places to stay or excursions? we've done our research -- guidebooks, web, visited the DR tourism office -- but i find recent visitors can be very helpful.

thanks,
deborah
