Never Get Bored When Travel

You know when traveling you never get bored even when traveling through the same place. There is always something different.

You remember my last post, when I wrote you about traveling through Miami airport. Today I arrived near the passport control and in 123 I got through passport control. (but remember counter 28 to 33 is most of the time faster than any counter because there were almost no one in the queue.

So, I had to wait almost 20 minutes for my luggage to come out. But to my surprise even the security check was less crowded than in other days, even though it is still vacation time. but anyway I enjoyed my stay at Miami airport this time. I had time to drink a good 'Samuel Adams'. For people who are not familiar with certain customs, it is one of the best beer in the States. If you are thinking differently you can post your comment. But as a German I think I know a bit regarding of beer-drinking. But beer drinking is only a question of taste. Everyone has a different taste and you can post your personal opinion.

You know beer drinking is like wine drinking, some like it sweet, some medium sweet and some dry as I do. You know the wine that grows near my home town area is very dry, some even say it is like acid. But I like it very much.

So, when you travel always enjoy it, even so it is for work you still can enjoy your trip. And if you go to the Dominican Republic enjoy your flight as I do and have a nice stay. Or may I say, “See you in Santo Domingo?”
If you hate the cold there is no better excuse than go to the Caribbean Sea the best get away place in the world.

Renaissance Santo Domingo Jaragua Hotel & Casino

The Marriott chain of hotels is without any doubt has a beautiful selection of hotels all over the globe. And the hotel in Santo Domingo the capital of Dominican Republic is no exception. It is a hotel for every taste and gustos of a traveler. Even so the hotel itself is an older construction but the remodeling was a great success in my opinion.



People who like 'Spa', massages, sauna and fitness to relax when travel this is a great place to stay. I do not exaggerate when I say that the outfit in the fitness room is one of the best and most equipped I have seen lately. I was "boca abierta" as the Spanish say, when I entered first into the fitness room. And the charm and friendliness of the people make the stay in the hotel even better.

The almost 14 days stay in that hotel was an exceptional relax time. One did not feel the working hours when coming back to the hotel in the evening and an one hour or plus stay at the fitness center was a relax even after sweating like crazy.



The swimming pool area is a nice quiet and almost private place where you can relax under the beautiful Caribbean Sun and get a little bit color for the winter time or let say you charge a little bit Vitamin D. And what is better than the Caribbean Sea.

You know I always wonder why is it that the poorest countries all over the world have the highest taxes for tourists and business people. Have you ever wondered why? And what is more surprising that the people in those countries do not live better; is it that the benefit of the taxes never come to the people? It is a real pity seeing that misery in those beautiful countries or I would say paradise on earth.

So, coming back to Santo Domingo and the hotel Renaissance Jaragua Hotel & Casino there was one little thing that really got me upset. You normal pay with credit card in order that you do not need a deposit and you can move around as you please. But in this hotel they have a strange politic that they authorize you a certain amount on you card instead of leaving it open as it is the case in almost every hotel. And when you have passed the amount they have authorized they bother you in this case they send me 3 letters of good paper and with an envelope just to remind me that I owe a certain amount of money. But the worst thing was that I was leaving the next day anyway. So I really urge the management of the hotel to get rid of that stupid politics they have with the accountant department. Especially when we are talking about a world wide hotel chain like Marriott. This type of politics can make some people upset...just a comment.

But Santo Domingo is worthwhile a travel trip and even if it is only for a few days to relax.

Another Pearl In The Caribbean Sea

There are many attractive places in the Caribbean Sea. There is Jamaica the sweet and colorful island as his nature and fruits.

And there is another ‘Pearl’ called Dominican Republic. And it is without any doubt difficult for me to tell which the best is. The colorful and sweet as a mango Jamaica or the Spanish speaking, and friendly and naturally colorful island of the Dominican Republic with his beautiful and colonial style city of Santo Domingo.

Santo Domingo

Situated at the edge of the Caribbean Sea with her beach with soft waves is a real pearl of the Caribbean and without any doubt an island worth to visit. Santo Domingo was the first city of the Spanish Crown in the new world. The city was officially founded on August 5 of 1498. It was destroyed by a hurricane in 1502 and rebuild on a different site nearby.

The city of Santo Domingo is not only a tourist attraction and the cultural center of the island, it is also the political, commercial and financial center of the Dominican Republic.

The Dominican are known for her friendliness happiness and warm hospitality.

Santo Domingo had the first catholic Cathedral, monastery, hospital, palace and university of the new world.

In 1990 UNESCO declared Santo Domingo World Heritage Site.
It has everything you can imagine. But the best way to discover a beauty is by visiting every corner of the city on your own.
