Day #9 Catalonia Dominicus

We spent one last night at the Don Carlos and this morning we all got up early to head to our various resorts. The only problem for us? We hadn't booked anywhere yet because we weren't sure what we wanted to do. We were flying out of La Romana down on the south-east while everyone else was heading back up to Punta Cana. So we decided to wing it. Thomas, our taxi van driver said he'd take us down to the resorts and help us find the best deal. So we went to a couple that were super expensive, but they would always recommend somewhere cheaper. The second place we went to even called the resort next door, hooked us up with a great price, and sent us on our way. Maybe not the best business skills, but definitely great people skills. So we ended up at the Catalonia Dominicus just in time for the end of breakfast, then we were off to the beach. We were blessed with great weather again. The strange thing is that there was a least some rain every day we were working. But our two beach days so far have been nothing but sunshine.

This resort was super European. There were a ton of French and Italian speakers. Up at Punta Cana there was a lot more Spanish speakers and Americans.
