Hola

Well, let's see what's been happening lately?

This time of the year is usually slow anyway, but it is really slow in the colonial zone. You don't see as many tourists as usual. The government has been touting numbers showing more people arriving this year as opposed to last. Nobody knows what the impact of this global economic slowdown will have on the Dominican economy. I don't think people really understand what potentially is about to come. Less remittances, fewer travelers and free trade zones losing jobs. You couldn't tell that there were any problems this past weekend. Most places (bars/clubs/restaurants) were filled with people spending money and having a good time. Even the upscale beach haunts were packed.

Other than that things are pretty much the same.

All the same places are open. Bar Friends is still open, though no one knows why. Eukliptus is still open, and on some weekends it can be festive if tourists are in town. Jay Dee's is still going strong, though without its former hostess, Coqui (spelling?). I love Coqui, but I think it was time to pass the wig to someone else. And Cha is as happening as ever. Last Saturday they had a best "ass" contest. $3,000 pesos went to the winner.

As ever,

Please secure photos of the "ass contest" at Cha. Especially the winner of the 3000 pesos.

3000 pesos?! What a fortune! Chachita really outdid herself this time, didn't she? That's 85 U.S. dollars and some change. Times must be really hard in the DR.

Eukliptus needs to rid itself of some of the thieves who hang in there every night. I like the place but the thieves who sit there and never buy a drink and beg from the paying customers is getting old........I may need to look for somewhere else to hang out.............Manuel needs to be told by someone who can get his attention.

Hi Anthony, I was wondering when you were going to blog again? I was getting very concerned..SMILE So it rather quiet down there , so sorry to hear that,not a good sign but not surprising however with the way things are here in the U.S.Now what happen with Cokie or Coqui?? no longer at Jay Dee's??? , what happen there? She been a fixture there for so long, for some reason I just can not believe that.However, nonthing ever stays the same for ever,thats life and progress so some say.Yes by all means post some hot sexy pictures of the ASS contest held at Cha's.Have a great day and week.Jim from Houston,Tx.

See Anthony - we don't require much. just a note to say what the streets look like and a line or two on the nightlife. Those of us who are DR ad-dicks appreciate just hearing that. Thanks Man. Peace. Brien, NY.

Don't know who the guy is in the pic, but he is Dominican. Found it on the internet. I have been trying to see if anyone has any photos of the Cha contest. So far, no luck. As for Rubin's calendar, he is the one that put the money up to produce his own calendar, thus he is the only model.
