One of the things I love about this country is the dichotomy of old vs. new, traditional vs. modern.

I’d love to see a Bostonian take out his road [...]

Life is good…this is one of our favorite spots – Playa de Majagual, or is it Playones, or Pitayaha? Regardless of the constantly changing name, we love this beach, the sand, the ocean, the people, and the cold drinks…
