Default Aqua Splash y Brugal Fest.

I guess Im a big kid.
After countless attempts by my novia, I finally agreed to hit up Agua Splash.
Me, her and and her amiga. Not knowing what to expect I packed light shorts and etc."Boy" was I sorry I waited so long to go and I did'nt even bring my camcorder "@#$%". Great food, beer, music and the all gorgeous women one could bare to sneek a peak at. I can't get over the fact of how fast the women take to the water. Once we when settled in to a cozy shaded table, the clothes were off and the two of them hit all the big water slides (7 minutes) flat. You can't get that from american women.
I jump in eventually to show off a few of my old lifeguard moves, but I soon jumped out to shower. The water there really isn't the cleanest, after the kids with daipers got out. We had lunch, a mixture of sausage and fritos on a huge plate and wash it down with a few brews. Beer at swimming pool only in the Dr does it get this good. A small dance floor with good music latin and a little hip hop great tempo and mellow vibe through out the park. A great alternative to the beaches of Boca Chica.

Cost: 250 pesos per person

Food: 400 including beers

The Brugal ( Beer ) Fest;
On a pier near the cruise ship dockin the CZ. Live bands all nite. Crazy energy in the atmosphere and you really get an idea of how dominicans party as a whole. I treid to keep up dancing with girls but they were in the Bachata zone, I lasted about 15 min. We drank a new beer called BLUE sort of a apple cider taste, but good. This went on for two nites. Now that Im back in the states I've completely wiped out my plans for brazil, insearch of the next carnival or festival the Dr might have. Im sold on they Dr for all future getaways.

Rental car: 450 us for 7 days. Small company recommed by a freind

My apartment: 350 US for 7 days. A freinds Condo.
Nice, clean, 1 bedroom, 24 hr elec, cable, air cond, safe and no traffic in the buidling what so ever. Extremely relaxing. ( but I think I had bed bugs ).

I was able to leave for 2 days to visit Sosua but I won't mention that in this trip report. But I was glad to see my apartment was exactly how I left it.

Sorry this isn't to detailed but Im still recoverying from Jet lag and all the drinking.

Thanks for a good report. It sounds like you really had a blast - Especially when you decided to NIX Brazil .... Wow, that is a statement. I too have decided the DR is my vacation location from now on.
