Caribe Tours is kind of like the GreyHound bus of the
Dominican Republic. I take these buses at least once a month, usually to the
capital, but they go to and from most major cities.
One thing I want to remind everyone to do though is to bring
a winter coat.
No lie, all of the air conditioners in this country must be
located on those busses.
On our recent trip to the capital I told Michelle the night
before to be sure to pack a coat. In the morning I reminded her to bring a
coat. When we walked outside and she was wearing a long sleeve shirt I asked
her “Is that your coat?” She said it was. I said she may want a better on. She
thought she was fine.
I don’t think I was clear on just how cold these busses get.
I forgot my coat once… only once.
On the way back from the capital I had my giant comforter
blanket. Right before we boarded I decided to grab that blanket. It was the
most comfortable 5 hour trip I’ve ever taken on those buses, and Michelle was
sure thankful her feet weren’t freezing for the entire trip.
