Lance and I recently celebrated our 10 year anniversary with a vacation to the Dominican Republic. Why the Dominican? Well, we actually searched everything....Cancun, Riviera Mya, Jamaica, St Lucia....you name it, we tried it. The Dominican is where we found the best deal. It was absolutely fabulous....best vacation ever! We still randomly talk about how much fun we had.
We stayed at an all-inclusive resort, which was wonderful. We did venture out a little and went on an Outback Safari throughout the country. It is a beautiful country! We also walked down the road a little ways and shopped at the markets, which was quite the experience to say the least! We met some amazing new friends who happen to live in Chicago, so we are able to stay in touch very easily.
This was the most amazing vacation ever, and we really hope to go again someday and take the kids. They would love it! Who wouldn't, right? Here are a few pictures from the week.....
