Camp2016: Day 5

Sorry for the delay in reporting about day 5. It's just that as soon as camp ended on Friday we hustled back to the Montas compound, wolfed down la comida, boarded the bus and headed to the beach for the weekend. Five hours later we arrived at the house we had rented for the weekend. As soon as we arrived we got changed and headed to Playita, a small beach about a 15 minute walk from the house. Here is a picture of Evan and Frandy at the beach:

We had wonderful adventures all weekend as the kids got to see what a local beach community looks like in the DR. I can't really give more details of the town we were in because it is one of the few unspoiled and really undiscovered places in the DR and I don't want that ever to change. Every year we go there are new restaurants and other signs of modernization and I'm doing my best to slow down progress so that when Tanya and I retire here it will still be as pristine as it is today. You may think I'm joking, which would be a logical conclusion given the general tone of my blog entries, but I'm definitely almost being serious. We have it all worked out. Three months in Stowe for ski season and then nine months here. If only our kids didn't want to go to college we could probably make the move right now. Here's a peak of the beach just so that you get a sense of what I'm talking about:
