Punta Cana day 14

The day of leaving the country and the tropical climate is very hard, because here in Holland the winter season is starting. We are going to the airport Punta Cana and we are checking in. Everything goes smoothly. About approximate thirty minutes I have walked at the airport and what do you think what there has happened next? I am broadcast by the security guys because they want look in my luggage. So I am going to the security and it is terrible to standing for the security guys who can't speak english! Standing in a tiny dusty room where they look into the lugguge. Hopefuly there isn't anything legals in the baggage so I can go back to the departure hall. Few minutes later I can go to airplane to get in and I can go back to the Netherlands and will be back in 18 hours! I can tell you when you are threated as a smugglar isn't very good feeling. It is better to avoid this kind of experience! Overall I can say "I have experienced a lot but there isn't nothing better then your own home. HOME SWEET HOME!

This is Punta Cana 2011 and will stay in my mind!

Punta Cana day 13

A lovely day to rest because the wheater sucks! I probably will tell something about what I have already done and haven't told yet!

Resort RIU Palace Macao
My dad and I are going to Punta Cana to a Resort with the name RIU Palace Macao. How does the resort look like and where are we in Punta Cana or Bavaro. What I am going to show at this blog will be the room, the passages, the music-dancing bar, the garden and swimmingpool and the bar at the beach.

The room
The room is very big and is very nice. The only thing what I am not going to show is the bathroom, because this one is standaard except taht the bath is at the same time the shower place. So this isn't spectaculary.














The passages
The passage are very clean this is remarkble because there is nearby a beach.



The music-dancing bar
The famous music-dancing bar is open from 10:00 AM untill 7:00 AM. Why it is famous? Because my father and I have drunk some kamakazi right here. The next morning my father has a tough start!

The garden and swimmingpool
You find the garden and swminnigpool on two minutes of your room. The garden is token care of everyday so it is clean as shining diamant! Because there isn't any garbage in the garden and you won't find any garbage in the garden!

When it is hot my dad and I will jump into the swimmingpool to cool down. The swimmingpool is not big but is big enough to take dive. At the swimmingpool we get a service like everyone else. The drinks be brought by the waiters and this is super service of this resort! You are sitting at the swimmingpool and you don't concern about if you get thirsty because they will bring you every second of the day till 10.00 AM until 6.00 PM. Near the swimmingpool there is a bar to get your drinks if you want to get your drink by your own. It is open at the same that you get your drink at the swimmingpool.
What is also can be found near the swimmingpool are the tabletennis tables!
On the other side of the swimmingpool at the opposite direction of the bar you can find the steakhouse where you can get a snack till 1.30 PM until 4.00 PM and can eat in the evening if you have booked for that night. The diner will take place form 7.00 PM until 8.30 PM or 9.00 PM until 10.30 PM.



The bar at the beach
The bar at the beach has the same service as the bar at the swimmingpool only the service is on the beach. It is near a vollebalfield where I have played several times! So this is excellent because you are chilling on the beach you will get your drink and when your are playing volleybal then it is very nearby to order a drink!





Overall a resort where you must have been because the service is great!

Punta Cana day 12

Dolpins express or exploration
http://www.dolphinexplorer.com.do/

Today we go to the dolphins express park in Punta Cana. I Almost has been driven for an hour when Mariëlle says that it is half an hour. So we are at the park and we see a lot of wild lovely animals! We see parrots, dolphins, tigers and sealions!

First We see a big beautiful tiger at the park. We make some pictures of the tiger when the tiger is being fet and gets some commandos off tiger temmer. If the tiger is under control the tiger will sit down for a big window where the crew of the park will make a picture. He says explicit that we can buy pictures when we are ready with the tour but he is hammering on to make a picture. This guy is to commercial and the most of the working people of the park are the same. I cannot blame them to sell something to a tourist but sometimes it is better to do less commercial and give the people something more so that they will give some money from their heart. This is the start of the tour and it won't be better because they asked by every new seen animal for a selfmade picture. So it is very annoying to tell everytime about the pictures that can be bought.

Then we saw the parrots. They have very nice colourful softly fethers, they are very big and have a big pecker! Some of the workers of the park says to me that I have to watch out that I will be bitten by a parrot. At that moment I am thinking about "sure boy if the parrot will bite me then I will figurly turn his neck or his pecker 360 degrees around".
But the parrot don't bite me so I don't turn his neck or pecker around :P




The next picture that I can buy is with a sealion. So we go to the sealion that give me a kiss on my cheek!
The sealion is stinking out his mouth and the stank smells like a dead animal that lays for a couple of weeks. After the kiss we get a show that I have seen many times in Harderwijk at Dolfinarium. The sealionshow is fine and there are some tricks as example the sealion claps in his hands. Overall I can take a rest and I get a browner skin because the wheater is dilicious!

When the sealionshow is done, we are going to the dolphins! This is the part where we are coming for! We are stepping into the water and do some dolphins stuff! We has choosen for the exellence program which is written on the next website. http://www.dolphinexplorer.com.do/excellence.html
There are two dolphins in the water where we are going to do some stunts with!
We are having done the next stunts:
- dance with a dolphine
- give a kiss to a dolphine
- get a kiss of the dolphine
- aaien van a dolphine
- be a superman (pushed above the watersurface by two dolphines)
- My father and I laying down on the water and we spinning around like a cirkel
- let the dolphins jump over mine and my father legs

All this doing things very wonderful to experience but to buy a photo which cost €12 per picture is at a very high price!
This price isn't realistic! Conclusion it is better to go to Dolfinarium and do this stunts in Dolfinarium then here in Punta Cana Dolphins express.
My experiences are upgraded and I can look back to wonderful time in the water with the dolphins!

climax of this day:
WiFi doens't work in the resort and I am not able to fix the problem because they want and shall have to fix the problem by their own and they want no help. I know what the problem is and I can solve the problem approximately in a second. So I can be waiting for internet for a long time!

Punta Cana day 11

Monstertruck Safari! 
http://www.monstertrucksafari.com/monster-truck-en/main.html

The monstrertruck safari starts at 7.30 AM. This safari is very impressive because the sight is very beautiful, there is a lot of poor people, the primairy school isn't finished yet and the cockfight is the biggest income of dominicans's citizens. A lot of impressions I get and I will advise everybody to do this once in your life!






At the monstertruck trip we have a lovely and a polite guide that tell us everything about the country, Dominican Republican. So the trip without this guide will be a trip without feelings and meanings excepte for the landscape that is very beautiful!



Therefore the guide makes a good sphere in his monstertruck!






The sight of Dominican Republican country


The dominican republican country is for 60% highlands or mountains. I saw a lot of highlands and  I could come to myself in the nature because it was very beautiful to see! I had too much luck with the weather that it was very sunny and due to this I could shoot nice pictures and could see very much of the country.

It is a great country to see. The lovely nature with the nice weather is a combination that is earning the best medal at the moment!



Poor people
The people are poor at the rural area. This was shown off the houses that weren't finished to build. Also poor people didn't build their homes with stone but with other matarials, this was what I was thinking. And the most citizens asked about money te get some money, who we got to know. The most remarkable of little children was that they also asked for a tip what I didn't like. At the end I gave my favorite green T-shirt/Polo for social assistance to those poor people who had nothing at all except their own clothes that they were wearing.





Primairy school

During the truck safari we went to a primairy school which  were for citizins who hadn't got the money for school. The primairy school counted probably two teachers and eleven childrens whose following classes in one classroom. It was very hard to see that the children hasn't got the education that we have got. An example is the numbre of tables, they are much lesser then we have in a class room of eleven children.
The children at the primairy school were very proud about their country and would show the card of dominican republican.








Chockfight
The cockfight is the best source of income. A cockfight is at Sunday and is a fight between two cocks where the people can bet for a cock which shall win the match. When someone has gambled right, this person will be paid twice his bet! Here will be earned the most money because there a lot of people with a lot of money who are gambling. So people are taking some risks to earn money in a quickway at Sunday!










The conclusion of this story is very short and is: Visite a monstertruck safari in Punta Cana because it is very impressive what you will witness! It is a enrichment for your life experiences!

A climax on this day:
I saw a lizard and hold an cock which is very aggressive! It was very exciting and impressive!

Punta Cana day 10


I have made a kayak-trip at Atlantic Ocean to a shipwreck! It was very fun to do and at the same time it was very exciting to do! The trip was a thousand km long and there were big waves of six meters high on this ocean. Just kidding! On the picture you can see what the oproximately distance is and the waves were actually two and a half meters high on the sea! So the Kayak-trip was an excelent-trip! I went to the shipwreck with my dad by the kayak but we started to kayak with five people! The others found it to far to kayak so we wanted to see the broken boat! And we started with the kayak-trip with big waves on the ocean. To pass the big waves with a kayak was hard sometimes because you would be smashed on the water with your kayak,which would turn your kayak upside down, if you weren't careful! I saw this happen at my dad. Lucky he was getting as quick possible in his kayak, so he can paddle further! Overall kayaking is an activity that you have to do! 

When the kayak thing had finished I went to go to sleep in a long chair. The day was sunny during the kayak activity and later on this day there would come a lot of clouds when it would be raining! At this moment I thaught and wanted to take my rest for the excursion which will come tomorrow. Because tomorrow I will have a monster truck safari! Thus I had slept a very long time to heap me up for tomorrow and didn't do anything special!

Last week I had bought a t-shirt and a swimmingpants! I will show you how great and wonderful they are atleast I find them wonderful and great!

A climax this day:
The movie at the bottom will show you how nice the people of this resort are and how lovely they are towards people! It happened when we were eating! The attitude, the enthousiasm and the conviction of dominican working citizens are unbelieveble and overwhelming, because they are friendly, lovely towards people, always smiling and most important thing is that they are always very polite! Watch the movie to see how enthousiasm they are if their is someone having his birthday, then you will get an impressian of citizens of the dominican republic! Have fun with watching the movie!

Punta Cana day 9

The forecast says that the weather will be bad but it is in the end very nice and delicious warm! I can get a brown skin and I can get an active day. So I even do some activities today! I actually thought that I only could go to the beach to take some waves but that wasn't an issue! I take some small waves today and it will be shown in the following pictures.

Before I took some waves I played tabletennis, read a book and took a nap. First I played tabletennis in the very warm lightful sunshines. My dad and I played several games. After he had got enough to play tabletennis I was going to read a book. I started reading in the book and switched these activity with taking a nap. I took a nap if I was done with a paragraph. This was changing serveral times because I was very tired and I must heap me up for reading some creative, delicous and learnful text! The title of the book is "You are who you become!".  I like to read books like these because this kind of books will give you personal developing skills which you can use in daily life. So these books are vere useful books!



climax that was yesterday and today:
Yesterday the wheater was very bad. So a power plant was probably hit through a lightning, because there was no power in the country and in the hotel. Later on  there would be power in the resort. This power would be gotten from a generator which would be used by all RIU resorts I think. But there was no electricity yesterday at the rural area. Today we have some aftershocks for several seconds. Tomorrow it will be over and we won't see any lights that will be blinking!

Punta Cana day 8


The weather is very bad and it is raining during the breakfast that we have. The rain shower will be heavier with every minute. It rains in a row for a half an hour and after a half an hour the rain shower can be called a storm because there is some thunder. Not just a thunder but a thunder which give you vibrations on your chest! The vibrations are unbelieveble touchable! This storm starts at 11.00 AM (16.00 dutch time) and ends at 5.00PM (22.00 dutch time). The weather is very special to see because it is raining very hard for six hours in a row! So if I want a swimming pool in my garden I can get a swimming pool from the rain that has dropped!

When my dad and I believe that the weather won't be better than you will see on the pictures we decide to go to the beach to run for a couple of minutes! During the running we see big waves which are buildingshigh! Just kidding, the waves are atleast 2 meters high and the special waves  are 3 meters high! Obvisiously we stop with running and are taking a dive in the sea with the great unbelievable waves! I am very happy to see big waves because I am thinking of a sleepy sea that hasn't got any wave at all but the sea has had very nice waves! I fall, jump, run into the sea with these waves and I love to do that! Hopefully tomorrow there will be the same waves available as today to get fun with this weather in the sea! A remarkable thing is that the rain has a colder temperature than the sea!

Further on this day I read a book and I has finished the book! The story is wonderful and I hope that the next story of this writer will be great! Maybe I will be a book smart but we will see!

A climax on this day is:
The videocamera has stolen. He has stolen out of my bag when I was talking with dutch people and after this conversation I want to use the videocamara and he has gone!
 )(*!)*(*$LKJS(!*#(@
One advantage is that the movies are on my computer  which I has made so I don't miss anything but it isn't very fine to miss your videaocamera, you *(&&()@$&)@#*$@)*

Next day I will tell more about the restaurant where we can eat without reservation!

Punta Cana day 7

Bávaro day 7 is a day of activities! The activities are play tabletennis, archerey, vollybal and also tennis.
So it was a very active day and after a day full of sportactivities I will be hungry in the evening!

The diner starts at 9.00 PM and it will be at Krystal. Krystal is a cullinair restaurant which has a menu cart to order your diner. You probably think that there is always a menu cart in a restaurant. The menu cart is always available in a restaurant but in a all inclusive resort a menucart isn't usual. We reserve at Krystal this morning to eat in a restaurant where a menucart is available.The following picuters will show you what I eat at Krystal and how Krystal looks!
The entrence of Krystal Restaurant                













Inside Krystal Restaurant












Where and bow are the people sitting?













Now you have seen how the restaurant is, will I give you the the pictures what I eat at Krystal!
The starter that I choose was very tasteful because there isn't any taste prevailing. Also the taste combination is very good to eat. Overall a excellent starter!








The main course is baked beef on medium with eggsauce with mushroomfoom and baked portatoes with union and bacon. This is very delicious and I want to cook like the chef, because everyone will like this food!









The last and the best course, the DESSERT. Chocolate cousin wwith vanilla ice! There will be no explaination for this DESSERT, because you can see how tastful it is! Bon Appétit y hasta mañana!

A climax on these day:
When I want to close my computer someone pukes on the floor next to me where I am writing my text. Unbelieveble! It is German guy so... Bradworst bitte sehr :P
