Dominican Republic in January!

Aliki and Pedro!

Up to Amy and Jord's.... down to Aliki and Sophies

WHOOOOP there it is....

Later on in the show... Aliki and Jord were pulled up on stage... since we were front row centre... they danced... I declined so that I could sit back and laugh!

Coco's on the head... and going LOCO in the head, waiting at the Punta Cana air port for 8 hours!

A beautiful spot by the beach, where we went for dinner... nice lobster! A photo opp while we waited for our meal... in the city of Punta Cana.

The beautiful one... and his Mommy! Dawning his "presidente" T -shirt, which he wore in pride! Uncle Gus bought it the night before... since undershirts (beater t shirt) are not allowed at the Bamboo... A hotel next to us, where we went for dinner.

Seemed like a "high speed chase" from Miami Vice.

"I think Miami Vice was before our time ma!"

Beautiful plush greens... bananna and coconut trees line our walkway, in whatever direction we walk.... as they cascade up to our balconys... so do the Gecko's and other lizards which draw our attention, as they hold onto the trunks, look at us, and bolt in another direction.

Workers constantly "up a tree" cutting down the coconuts, chopping the tops off with huge macheddies, as we wait, poking a hole in the top... Handing you a straw and the healthy treat! Such an art the way they do it so swiftly,,, but then they've done it 1000's of times!

We're too old to be Charlies angels... after all, he must be dead by now! But we all know we're angels,,, none the less!

Smoking a cigar... "have you learned nothing my child!!!" as Auntie Dee looks on in discust!

Aliki out snorkling.... it's all inclusive and the fish need to eat tooo... so she loads up with buns from the buffet to feed her new friends... twenty feet off of the beach where our resort sits.. An abundant amount of time... and an abundant amount of buffet food,, were appreciated by all at this sweet spot! ............ "Can you see Gus???",, "I can't see Gus,,, do you see the kids???"... "I can't see the frikken kids... their at the reef feeding the fish...."... "OK, No problem.... am I gettin burnt???"... "Naw your not getting burnt!" ........... Roll over.... .... .... .... .... "So do you see Gus?"... "NOPE" "the kids????" .... "Nope".... "dinner time soon eh?" "INDEED!" "I wouldn't go topless if I looked like that eh??" ... "nope, me neither! ... thats why I have a top on!" "Here comes Pedro...... "GLUG GLUGG GLUGGG..... GLUGEEEEEEEEEEO!!!" As he carrys a tray of drinks to anyone who wants them.... (Gus says GLUGG is the world wide expression for swallowing drinks!) I think he's correct! I didn't want a drink, but it was always nice to see Pedro... a sweet short guy, who wore MANY hats.... so we always waved,,, and he brought us drinks! He was on stage a lot, and danced with Aliki many times.... what a comedian!

I will coooke yoo dis un laydee! It be as red as you, when it cook!

Jord and Gus hitting the beach... where they stand... their half way between the food (all day buffet and bar) and the ocean... as seen! What more could you ask for??
