In Grand Turk we went snorkeling and played with some stingrays. The stingrays are sort of on the payroll. They get bits of food from the locals and seem to enjoy having their undersides rubbed. The big ones are female. The little ones are male and have some extra equipment in back.
We took a cultural tour in the Dominican Republic. A lot of island history, a museum, a fort, an amber market and lunch in a garden.
San Juan hasn't changed much. I've been here many times on business for a week or two.
We still have St. Maarten, Tortola and Half Moon Cay coming up. We'll be in Tortola for our anniversary on Christmas Eve,
These Sand hill Cranes were in the backyard a few times this month.
Sunset in the Dominican Republic.
We're at a table for four with an interesting couple from Canada. They were in the Foreign Service and have been stationed all over the world.
A view from the fort at Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic. The locals claim Sir Francis Drake pretty much destroyed the fort and town. Maybe he did.
