The Squid is reporting in from Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic today!
Had to charge Beth´s iPod, so here I am at the internet café at 10 dollars (US) an hour entering a blog post. This has, of course, removed me from beach time. In any case, it appears to be working, so it is a 10 dollar lesson to remember to bring a charger with a USB connection on it.
It has been a good time so far. I have learned a few things so far.
Most recently, for example, I have learned that a Spanish keyboard does not have an obvious dollar sign, despite there being one marked above the 4.
As you can imagine, the weather here is vastly superior to the weather at home. It did rain for a few minutes a couple days ago, but for the most part it has been clear, 28 C give or take, with a sea breeze. Bountiful bosoms bounce along the beach. Unfortunately so too do gentlemen who should have better sense than to display themselves in banana hammocks. Oh well, one´s hat can always be pulled over one´s head when necessary.
The food is decent. This is a nice resort. I´ll probably have more on that later with pictures when I can extract them from my camera... I hadn´t expected to end up in front of a computer until next week, so I didn´t bring the appropriate cabling.
Nights have generally been clear, although I haven´t had the binos out for stargazing yet (only beachgazing).
