You’re on another trip with Barry and Liane, so buckle up and climb in the backseat. We decided that since it had been so long since our last visit to Las Galeras, we would take a short journey to observe how things had evolved. It’s been roughly six years since we were there. So, we [...]

Hey, guys, you’re back with Liane and Barry, and on another day trip over the weekend, we recently reconnected with a fantastic guy named Tony, who is a good friend, but we somehow lost communication. I was never certain as to the location of his farm, but lo and behold, he was in Cabrera and [...]
Hi guys, you’re back once again with Liane and Barry on our little adventures. It wasn’t all that long ago we ran into a good buddy of ours named Angel, and he’s a member of one of the four-wheel drive clubs. I got to tell you, man, this buddy of mine, boy, does he know [...]
This is the last video in the series. It’s a bit lengthy but there were so many different roads I took to end up at the lake and they all had some exceptional scenes. Even though the camera can never match being there I’m sure those viewing the video can imagen the scope of some [...]
I began the next morning and departed Constanza rather early. I headed towards Jarabacoa and decided to check-in at the hotel. Whenever I’m in the area Liane and I really like staying at Hotel Gran Jimenoa. It’s a lovely place and they serve an excellent breakfast. I dropped off my belongings and relaxed while recharging [...]
As I continued, the altitude began declining and I entered Valle Nuevo. I hope folks watching this take time to notice a completely different foliage. When first entering the trail, it was tropical and now it’s taken on a northern appearance. What was cactus and palms were now evergreen and northern pine. Amazing diversity is [...]
Since I had never been to this part of the country when I first arrived at Palmar de Ocoa, I decided to drive up and down most of the seaside roads. When I scouted the B&Bs on the Internet I was actually kind of excited. Some of them looked really nice and since living here [...]
Well, I’m finally off and running once again. The Truck is ready for a real test and that’s exactly what I’m prepared to do. I left the house early this morning not having a clue where I wanted to go. I did want to cover the new bypass highway from beginning to end so why [...]
As I attempt keeping my subscribers in tune with useful information regarding the ever changing events, let’s move onto a subject I first began mentioning over a decade ago and that is: How important it is for everyone in your family to have a second passport. What I’m about to describe will certainly come as [...]
With day three approaching we first planned a visit to a seaside cave. It’s actually not well known but if you ask around one of the locals will know. If you’re into that sort of thing it’s worth the trip. I was actually surprised at how big it was. After our morning caving deal it [...]
Because there’s a lot of ground to cover day two got off to an early start. The hotel supplied a suitable breakfast consisting of eggs, cheese, ham, toast, coffee, juice and an assortment of fruit. Actually the coffee was so good and since we always travel with our own fresh cream, we actually stayed for [...]
Once more it’s that time again, it’s time to yell out ALL ABOARD!!! Why not come along with us? Pack a small bag and hop into the back seat. This time you’ll be joining Liane and me on another one of our many short trips around the DR. This time it’s Las Galeras and the [...]
I’m sure by now you’re already aware that “ole” Barry in DR really gets around the region. Heck the entire country for that matter. Our team makes every effort to promote all aspects of the DR and not just concentrate on the ordinary or the mundane. So whenever I get the chance to give back [...]
