Saona Island

Today was quite an  adventure.  We were up at six to leave at seven for a day excursion.  To make a long story short, we finally arrived at the docking station at noon.  Then a speed boat ride to an island where the sand was to be so white as you could imagine.  When we arrived there we were once again accosted by vendors selling their merchandise and women selling masages.  It is quite nice at this hotel they don't allow vendors on the beach.  Near is a market but the sellers are so aggressive, you just get turned right off.  Today dad went to ask how much for towels and the lady actually grabbed him.  He told her in no uncertain terms that the conversation ended right then and there.  Regardless we arrived there at about 12:30 and would depart again at 2:45.  We were back at our room at 8:00.  It would have been less stressful staying here at the beach.  It was nicer afterall. We did get to see some flying fish again and that alone made it all worthwhile.  They are so amazing!  What a sight!  It's about time to turn in once again, so until tomorrow, I bid you all adieu.
