My Condo in Sosua on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic

This is a picture of the Living Room, and dining area of the condo I rent out. It is 600 US a week plus metered electric. It has everything I would want in my own home including artwork.
.
It also has 2 bedrooms and 2 full Bathrooms and everything you would expect in an upscale vacation condo in the Caribbean. This picture below is the front of the building that I just got in email from Ken who is the President of our condo association. It shows both our new gates in the front for security and my 2 motorcycles which of course is more important:) El Neptuno in my opinion is one of the nicer complexes on the North Coast and run better than any other I am familiar with. We have completely upgraded the entire complex in the last 4 years and you can see the differences and if you are living here enjoy the hell out of them!
.
My comments in the last entry were just to set the record straight. It doesn't bother me in the least and I just wanted to tell some people that I don't have to be politically correct in their views, just in my own and my view is all that counts to me.
.
I have no one to please these days other than myself. I don't have a business here where I need to have anyones business and stupid comments couldn't hurt me in the slightest. It actually gave me great pleasure to tell them to "Go fuck yourselves":)
.
I was at Pedro McMurphys tonight for dinner. They did a Dominican Specialty Chivo Picante which is hot and spicy Goat. It was very well done and very reasonable in price (250 Pesos) and the only objection I had was the carrots which by the way were delicious but they weren't Dominican in Nature.
. I am very much looking forward to their next try at a Dominican Special "San Cocho" which is the National Dish of the Dominican Republic. I told Fred that if he doesn't get that perfect (which he should since he has Dominican Cooks) I would send in my girlfriend who does a WICKED San Cocho!
.
While I was having dinner a fellow walked over and introduced himself to me. He was actually a big bidder on the last Charity Auction I did to raise money for Kids Causes. He said "I hope you won't find this strange but my wife and I read your blog and I recognized you from your photos and I just wanted to say hi". Of course I didnt find it strange and it was real nice to meet him. He and his wife spent a lot of money on bids for our auction and It was a pleasure to put a face to the name!
.
Just so you know I couldn't have been any happier than when you came over!! Sorry I didn't get a chance to speak with you more but when I finished my dinner you had already left. Please get in touch with me next time you plan a trip and it would be my pleasure to take you up to the finca!
.
Okey dokey, I have some new pictures on my new phone which I need to get onto the computer and post here. Bear with me and they will appear shortly!
.
Hasta Pronto!

Hi Scott,
This is Boyd(the guy that introduced himself at Pedro's).
Thanks for your kind words.
As mentioned we are trying to get back to Sosua in April. We may have interest in your condo.
Could you please shoot me a e-mail as I cannot seem to come up with your e-mail address.

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
