Photo Tour of Dominican Republic

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to tour the northern coast of the Dominican Republic on behalf of its tourism board. I fell in love with the colors, flavors, and the warm, kind people of the Dominican Republic. Hop on your virtual scooter (the transit of choice for many Dominicans) and take a ride across the coast with me for a sampling of what I experienced.
