Punta Cana

Theresa and I  missed the week long winter weather while we took a short vacation to Punta Cana. Our weather was perfect and everything about our stay away was just right. I am always amazed at the hospitality shown to tourists in this region. Although the people speak Spanish they make every effort to converse with your every wish.

The local government has made tremendous strides over the past ten years in improving the info-structure of the Island . Because of the massive numbers of tourists choosing to visit this area the opportunity for the local people to gain steady employment has strengthened the overall economy. Tourism has become the major employer and care has been given to make sure that proper training has kept up with the demand for high end service.

The natural gifts of weather and sandy beaches have been utilized to the limit and care for the environment is a high priority. Every time we return we are more impressed with the positive changes.
