The Nathaniel Show "Summer 2011 Dominican Republic"

This summer started with a bang or two for The Nathaniel Show. For the first time I renewed my passport and flew out of the country. My first out of the country vacation was an all-inclusive trip to the Dominican Republic. On arriving to the Dominican Republic, I was greeted by my friend Nunez who drove me to my location in La Capital (Santo Domingo) and Boca Chica beach. The weather was hot and the people were friendly. I must say my basic Spanish skills came in handy throughout the trip. While in the Dominican Republic I not only enjoyed fun in the sun but I was introduced to the culture and the new Transit system in Santo Domingo. My friend Nunez is somewhat of a historian and political in DR so I was invited to the home of the then political hopeful and now President of the Dominican Republic Danilo Medina. Nunez and his friends where very hospitable and treated me like family. The food  and the conversations even in my broken Spanish where heartwarming and memorable.
