Our experience with customs
When we arrived at Puerto Plata airport about three weeks ago with four girls customs wanted us to open all our suitcases. One of my friends smiled very friendly to this guy and "laughed" about his jokes. She didn't have to open her suitcase. I brought cheese in my handluggage (which I'm not supposed to import into the country), so when she put my handluggage on the counter I told her to JUST give the suitcases. So when I wanted to take our car with handluggage the guy got kind of upset. When my friend said "no, no .. it's mine .." it wasn't a problem anymore.
The guy asked one of my other friends what her name was. She told him that is was really not important. So that sure didn't work for her. She had to open her suitcase as well and he really took EVERYTHING out .. all her personal stuff, all her underwear. He was making "fun" of her, showed her g-strings to the other guys. Well .. not very funny, but what can you do ???
I guess all you can do .. if you're a girl and these guys start flirting .. just use your "charmes", smile a lot and laugh .. that might be the best way to get through!
So far our story!
