I just got a private message from a fellow DR1 member,
telling me that the photos are too big.
I want to apologize to all of you for the inconvenience.


I use tinypic.com. Several days ago,
another fellow DR1 member
recommended me a very nice website to host pictures.
I will look into it tonight and re-size the photos.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.

On Saturday night, I was walking in the
Malecon at around 6pm
and I suddenly see many people and cars.
My friend told me that tomorrow is election day.

Good luck to all candidates.









That wraps up my trip report.
And again, my apologizes for the large photos.
I will look into another website and re-size the photos.
Have a good day.

If you don't already have a program to resize your pics here is a free one called PixResizer:

Individually or in batches.

This is more of a food report. Thanks Potato Salad. Thank you for giving us a different kind of trip report. I loved the pictures.

The food and drinks were very good.
But it was a bit expensive.

The three of us ordered (my friend shared an entree with his wife)
and the total price came out to around 1,800 pesos
(Four drinks, one appetizer, and two entrees).

The waiter was kind and spoke pretty good English.

You can also get a sun tan here and swim.
This place is quite during the weekday but gets very busy during the weekends.
