Casa De Campo Yo!

 Rain paved the way as we left the city on boxing day.

 But before long the clouds broke and
clear skies appeared on the horizon...

 Through the fields of sugar cane and past the sugar cane factory.

 Over the new suspension bridge, near San Pedro de MacorĂ­s.



 Hmm, funny I suddenly feel like an ice cold beer?!

 Here comes the blue skies and scooters!

 Through the town of La Romana and onward to...

 Casa De Campo!

 We stayed with Bethzaira's Aunty Alexis,
in her beautiful apartment in Altos De Chavon.

 There is an art school situated within Altos De Chavon
which is a sketchbook dream!

 I think poor Oscar thought we were leaving him to the rhinos!


 "Shhh'ark...FFfff'ssh"

 "S'ord, hi-ya!"

 Rio Chavon, fantastico!
Oscar - "Whoah, agua!"

 Fountain surfing!

 Dude!

 "Oscar, lunchtime!"

 After a yummy lunch of ChicharrĂ³n de pollo,
we spent the rest of the day chilling at the beach.

Nice.

Felix Navidad Party!

After our beach adventure in the north we celebrated Christmas
in Dominican style back at Abuela Jeddy's!

Oscar enjoyed the kipe's hand made by his great grand ma.

"One for you Oliver?"
Oliver - "No..."

"...Just sword fighting Daddy".

The lovely Medina ladies.

What a face!

Present time!

"Whoah!"

"...And what about me?!"

"A knight and a horse!"

Christmas cake!

"No pictures please, I'm trying to eat..."
(Funny how we don't have to ask Oliver to eat cake).

Then a family dance party!

"We're following the leader, the leader...

"...The leader, where ever he may go!"

"No Oscar'ed like this!"

Merry Christ' MAS!

 This Christmas tale began with ice cream...
Quickly devoured by a hungry little elf!

But the little elf was still hungry and went looking for more...

Cheeky little thing almost helped himself
whilst the ice cream man was away!
Oscar - "Mas?!"

Snakes, Lizards & Rainbows

Whilst Little brother slept,
The Pirates of the Caribbean did played!

And the sun came out to play too!

We saws lizards...

Snakes...

And...
Octopus's "No" Squids!

Lunch on the beach.

Fresh fish and fried potata, yum!


"Somebody just woke up..."

"...Hungry!"

Oliver - "I see something coming..."

 "A storm coming over the horizon!"

I see a rainbow.
