For the blog challenge, I will begin reliving my vacations before Covid. I’m not yet ready to travel on a plane, even with a mask. Today, I’m revisiting the Dominican Republic, where I vacationed with my daughter, Ashley, my son-in-law, Chaim, and my husband, Lee, at an exclusive resort.
This is the four of us going for our first meal. The resort was spread apart with many buildings and individual condos. We rented a small house with a backyard and pool. We had to move twice since there were problems with the condos, one lost water, and the second flooded from the rain. Each time, they gave us a more extensive and prettier house.
The grounds were beautiful and so extensive we used golf carts to drive around. Each section had its own pool, and we tried them all.
Palm trees were everywhere. We chose this exclusive resort because it offered kosher meals, which we didn’t realize at first that we paid for on top of everyone else’s fees.
This is the pool in the kosher section, which is the smallest one, but always deserted.
The pool in our last condo was the biggest and I was able to do laps.
The views were spectacular. I miss the beaches and pools and definitely need a vacation.
