I've been drinking alot of COKE

Okay so one of the main industries here is sugarcane, and there is two things they know how to do right here in the Dominican Republic, make coke with real suger, and rum. Coke cost about 15 pesos. You return the bottle and you get 5 peso's back so its about 40cents or so a bottle word..........................................

Beachhh




Its been a little bit since I've added anything on my blog, and I appologize. This is a pic at the beach we were at this weekend, same place we usually go, however we found a new place to chill.... a much more low key spot. It's within walking distance of the place we usually go but we decided to check out the other direction and we stumbled about this place. Did I mention how chill this place is, a couple kids renting out chairs for the day in an old abandoned resort that got shut down from the huricane a couple years back I guess. Squatting rights or somthing you'd be suprised at how many resorts around that have been shut down and never re-opened which is all the better for people like us I guess.

Worms



So I got worms, well at least I think so I had to send in a stool sample so I really wanted to take a picture of that for you guys but I thought I would post some more pleasant photos instead

Like grandma always said there is always a silver lining, after cleaning sink drains you can almost always go out and enjoy the sunset. A shot of our water tower from afar at a spiders eye view.

mmmmm.......lunch time....


So I hope you don't scope this during your lunch break because you might not want to eat. There's nothing like doing a drain check before lunch, the Tia's complain that their drains don't drain water and you wander why? Just imagine the smell of diarrhea in a toilet for like a week top it off with the smell of some throw up and yeah.......

Clouds





























I remember as a kid looking at the clouds and imagining, and seeing other objects/characters and so on. Right before I left Michigan I remember driving home from Grand Rapids and thinking we must of been very creative as kids to be able to see objects and imagining them being dogs, or cats, or cartoons, but now that I have been down here the clouds are so different then what they are in Michigan. Looking at them now here I let the creative juices flow and try to see other objects. The clouds here are amazing and I think I could spend an entire day watching them roll in.
