Punta Cana Bahia Principe Hotel Pool
Thinking a bit about it, I think this was the pool of the turquoise. All the hotels in the vicinity had identical rooms. I know because we took a tour of the place. I would not call it a real tour. The douche only showed us a single room. He then spent the rest of the time trying to get us to get a timeshare. The lesson of the day is that when the guy says he will only take an hour, he means 5. He knew tourists are not the rude type of people. Our politeness kept us there...
Tourists Walking at Bahia Principe
I took this photo a couple of months ago. I always like to take a lot of photos wherever I go. Depending on the security level, I decide whether to take the big camera or the small one. I have been using the same large camera for many years. The Fujifilm does everything it is supposed to and then some. I have barely used most of the features. I suppose I should just use it as a point and shoot type of camera. Most point and shoot cameras are not too gimmicky. Still, I like a camera that has high...
Orchids in Punta Cana
I was out in the desert, where I cannot remember my name. The long and short of it is that Monday is back. As of now, I am still trying many things to earn bling, bling for doing what I like. I am not the type of fellow that thrives in a working environment. The issue is that people expects a little brownnosing and I do not do that. In my career, there is also the matter of unpaid labor. The Journalism chumps in the US expects you to work for free. They also want you to give your work...
Butterfly Wings Key West Photo
Today, my family is going to celebrate Thanksgiving early. Some of the girls of my mom’s friends are going to travel early. As such, we have to eat dinner with them a day earlier. So far, nobody seems to be in the mood of getting up. I just woke up recently and had brunch. As for my mother, she is still sleeping. She is officially on vacation. Whenever she is on vacation, she tends to sleep till noon. I tend to do the same. Then again, I have my own work schedule, since I am doing the book thing. As...
Florida Keys Sunset Photo
This photo was taken on the way back from the Florida Keys. We left a little earlier to avoid the darkness. It did not help much, since it is the winter time. The only thing that winter brings to Florida is the daylight saving hours. Instead of saving the day, one gets eternal darkness way too early for my taste. It was not even 5:30 and it was like super dark. Most people tend to be active in late afternoon. The night is not our friend. Sure, we did see a couple of stars when the night fell. Still, it...
