We took a VIP excursion to Paradise Island and were delighted to find out that the sun did shine for more than ten minutes in the Dominican Republic. Breakfast and drinks were awaiting us aboard the yacht as we first took a ride to a swimming/floating spot. We were served tiny, fresh oysters and champagne once we boarded the boat again. Then a short trip to Santa Rosa for a banana boat ride, and a Dominican lunch with Coco Locos (coconut juice with rum). Finally, we arrived at Paradise Island, which was basically a sand bar with five huts...no restrooms. We went snorkeling and enjoyed just being out in the sun. Ah...paradise!

The moment I had been waiting for...oysters!Snappy pelicans at Santa Rosa; you don't want to get too close to those things!
Get in the boat, the banana boat! Falling off is a must!
How about them coconuts!
Alas, Paradise Island
The day was so sunny that Trung couldn't keep from squinting.
