The road to..............................somewhere

Today we decided to go on road trip. How hard could that be............let me tell ya. I have driven on bad roads, I have driven on back roads, I have driven in heavy traffic, I have 4x4'd in my jeep down quad trails, I have taken my car down roads that trucks wouldn't go, I have driven all over the world, I have even driven in Higuey on a motorcycle, but Higuey traffic in a car is the most whiteknuckle ride I have ever been on!!! These people have a sense of flow that can only come through genetics and osmosis. So that was the start of the day, we went to the Basilica when we finally got parked and it was beautiful. So then we spent 20 minutes finding our way out of the city. We went to El Siebo and onto Meches. We had to cross the interior mountains to get there. WHAT A SHOW. I wanted Dianne to take a video of the experience but she couldn't take her eyes of the road long enough, because she was parailzed with fear. To call hiway number 107 a highway would be a stretch, to call it a country road would be a stretch, to call it a road would be a stretch. When we finally crossed the mountain and got to town, we couldn't get out quick enough. Talked to the regional police and he escorted us out of town. Onto highway number 106, better but not really. The locals here told me not to use this road, aparantly they meant it. Everyone here hisses at everyone we found out why.....................they suck!!!!!
