This is the interection of the two main streets in Luperon. The street on the right is one-way going away from you. Note the cars on the right driving the "wrong" way....in the D.R. "one-way" signs are optional. No ones seems to get to upset. But, I got real confused as to which way to look while crossing the street !!
Here is the local drop off laundromat. Your clothes get hand washed in the big barrels of water, and then hung out to dry next to the dirt street. We actually had leaves in the sheet when we unfolded them. Gotta say that our clothes came back clean, and fresh. But, it is "interesting" to see your underware hanging in the street for the world to see. (T's got more attention than mind :) )
Here is a herd of goats wandering the main street. One morning there was a cattle drive (25-30 steer) down the main street in front of the municipal building. In typical D.R. style, the cowboys on horseback turned the herd left one street to soon....they had to back up the herd and head 'em up down the main street to the proper turn for the buther. We had steaks from the butcher the day before we left....the steaks were walking around the day before....they were terrific. Have some in the freezer for tonight .
