I have been here a few days now, and had a walk
around Boca Chica to the East, which is a tourist center with lots of hotels
and tour vans (and seems to be the hooker capital of the Dominicas)

and Andres
to the West, which is where the locals live and shop.

Around the marina (marina
Zar Par) the rich locals like to anchor a short way off in their power boats
and wait until about 11pm and then play their really awful repetitive music at
an increadible volume until 4 or 5am then return to shore?
On the up side, the chef in the marina restaurant after
hungrily eating all he heaped on my plate (a local dish of rice beans and a
spicy chicken, brought a sandwich out to the boat when I did not order supper,
and then ( have been eating lunch there every day) on Sunday he said the were
closed on Monday and presented me with a meal I could reheat at no cost, a
really nice guy!

If the customs and
immigration let me I will move on tomorrow morning for Puerto Rico, hoping the sea will
treat us kindly for the crossing.
