Found More Pictures…

More pictures I found on the tablet…

Tanya’s father Bob flies a couple of thousand miles to visit. We take Bob to Wendy’s Bar one day where he meets Norm. Norm is married to Wendy’s sister and has lived in the DR for 15 or twenty years. Norm is from Maine, two towns over from our hometown…

…and Norm begins a friendly lecture on the finer points of running a municipality in rural Maine:

The marina here in Luperon has a very nice restaurant with consistently delicious food:

Fish, pork chop, chicken:

Evidently “terrible” this time. Pretty sure all of our plates looked like this:

Dirk and Nancy on Renegade finally made it in after unexpected repairs in the Turks and Caicos. We went to Putulas for a late lunch yesterday, then hit a bakery:

…or was it Dirk and Tanya, AND Nancy?

This is more like it…:

People here are pretty passionate about thier dominoes (the game not the pizza). They slap their dominoes down hard and things can get pretty heated:

That’s it for now. We’re still looking for a window to head east. The few boats that have departed in current conditions have reported a very tough and uncomfortable slog, something we’re not interested in……………yet.
