We're Here! Riu Mambo

Okay,the flight was long, but we made it just fine and arrived into the hotel after dark. The three hotels,are just a stone's throw apart,and I'd say that ours is the newest addition. Our room is on the ground floor with two big beds pushed together to make a jumbo king sized bed! terrific... The reviews don't do it justice! The whole complex is beautiful and the food has such a great selection,that I don't think we'll become bored. Even late last night, we dined on fresh fish topped with yummy salsa and had these tiny empanadas that were delicious. This morning, we were so bagged that we slept till 9:00 Dominican time. It is four hours ahead of BC. Time. Today,Emil and I said we were in Heaven..so if we don't return, don't worry a fig about us. We have booked a tour to the city of Peurta Plata for Friday, and it includes the Amber museum and a gondola ride to the top of a mountain, plus the historical sites of the city and a visit to the Rum factory where they make Brugal rum, Dominican's best. We walked right up to that gazebo on the point today and took fifty pics...so beautiful... I guess a wedding is going to happen there on Saturday. Half the people coming to this resort were here for the wedding!
Ok...signing off...Love ya all...wish everyone was here...You'd all love it... oh yes, we watched an amzing Magic Show last night...two rabbits were turned into two doves on the opposite side of the room...Crazy...
