Thanks for sharing. There were some really interesting shots there. Maybe
I'll consider DR.

Nice pictures Elliott.
I agree diving was pretty good not like Bonaire or Belize or Cozumel; but
respectable.

Since it usually not crowded anywhere we go in Nov. we tend to get extended
bottom time. The dives tend to be 40-70' range. Several dives had alot of
life.

Food was excellent, especially the Continental Restaurant at Iberostart.

10 days away from NE in caribbean can't be all bad(-:)
