haiti > This is Sam wading out to the boat at the national park on the North coast of the D.R. He was getting the empty gas tank for the guide who we drove back to town to buy gas for the boat so we could see the manatees. There are supposed to be 29 manatees that are protected in the freshwater inlet, but the clouds were out and the guide said they probably went out to sea for the day since it was cooler than normal. It was a nice boatride, but we never saw the manatees - maybe next time.

haiti > This is a bottle of President beer and you find them everywhere you go in the D.R. We were eating at a restaurant in Playa Rusio, but there was no electricity. They gave us light by putting a candle in the top of the President beer bottle and the plastic cup kept the sea breeze from extinguishing the flame - I guess it was a sort of globe for the candle.
