NATURE! at it's Dominican finest...

I have to credit Dave with this picture- the crab was in a stream and Dave valiantly chased it and got this AMAZING picture!

one of the many lizards on the trail

a fun lizard- I love their little patterns on their skin

Dave loves Dominica!

hiking down.

more hiking ...

loving the Pool.

Dave with one of his MANY island catches.

Brave Dave :)

look at him go.

He looks like a monkey.

he didn't belly flop- he is free falling though!

The Brave men of Bense Pool!

Look at the fearless Jason!

other side- yet still fearless!

I love my strong husband!

planning their attack...

I love this picture- aren't they so amazing?!

Bense Pool!

Bense Pool was very pretty- but I didn't love the hike in.

Here is the hike in- yes- straight down and consequently, later- straight up.

thanks Jason and Dave for carrying Emmy the whole way!

My cute husband! Eating Emmy's bink- of course he is.

Emmy can sleep anywhere!

Dave at #1 Beach.

Dave was so happy to be there!
this is where Pirates 2 was filmed- Johnny Depp ran down this beach with the natives chasing him.
cool huh!
Gorgeous!- both Dave and the beach.

His Hands- this is in Portuguese and yes- it is me singing- I just found it- I'm on You Tube! how funny is that?!

Corker~

I don't know what this look means- but I thought it was so cute I didn't know what to do!

She is such a sweetheart.

Check out her cork screw curls!

so fun!

I love her little ringlets- they just do that. someone the other day asked if I curled her hair with a little curling iron- Ha!

Champagne Bay- fun!

Fish are friends!

this is why they call it champagne bay...

look at the bubbles!

It's from thermal activity underground or something- it was neat!

The Hugest sponge!

World Record Snapper!

So, we were driving through a little town and look what we saw!

This fish was HUGE!

It was cute- the guy has obviously never taken pictures with a fish before- he had no idea how to hold it for the camera :)

Let's just say, Dave almost wet himself.

yes, it is bigger than Emmy- HUGE-

Our Dinner- yep it's true!

check out the eyes... wow.

the johnny cakes that we got with the fish.

the whole meal...$33.00 EC.

Emmy waiting for the fish and Johnny cakes- she was very hungry.

Scottshead- very pretty.

here we are at Scottshead- it was very pretty and clear and cool- but I was glad that we combined it with Champagne Bay.

Gorgeous! I love the palms!

Dave scared a puffer and made it explode- sad! Jason thought it was funny-of course he did.

the Carribean Sea!

on the left is the Carribean Sea and on the right is the Atlantic Ocean.
