We made it to Luperon. This is a cool place. The bay is bio-illumine-cent. Its as good as the bio-illumine-cent bay in Viegas we went to last year. We each paid 40 bucks to go on a dingy ride there and here we had just as good bio effect and we were just dingying in.
The town of Luperon is just like a South American or Caribbean town should look like. There are 500 little motorcycles running around the town. They out number the cars 3 to 1. Then there are the dogs. They have 100 or so dogs all over the place. I haven’t taken our dogs to town. That would just be too much action for me to handle. Max would be just too big a target for all the dogs in town. So I take them to a beach on the other side of the bay. I think they like that better anyway.
I’ve been fighting a hole in my dingy. This hole I fix for a day then the patch comes off a little and I have the same hole again. I’ve been fighting this thing for a week or two. If anyone knows a secret to fixing a dingy leak please let me know. The problem seems to be that the patch goes over a place that is in one position when there is no air in the dingy, But its in a different position when there is air in it. So every time I put air in the dingy it stretches the patch and eventually starts leaking again.
Today I did my 100 mile oil change. With as much as we have been running lately it seems like just yesterday that I changed my oil. But it was two weeks ago. I will have to do another one before we get to St Thomas. But at least my engines seem to be running well. I had to change the fuel filter on the starboard engine this morning. The engine would stop every once in a while. But I think that change fixed the engine stopping. So now I’m done working on the boat. I think I will take the dogs in one more time then Karen and I will go to town. There is a lot to explore in town and I think we will have a great time checking it out. That’s all for now.
How much of the Dominican Republic do you expect to see? Will you get over to Haiti? Or, are those destinations for the return trip?
