Today, I rode a bus across the island, from the south coast to the north coast. It took about 4 hours.

The Metro bus was pretty comfortable, with AC and coach seats. Looking out the window, it was beautiful to see the mountains of inland DR.

I even bought some local snacks. My chips came with a surprise! I didn’t try it, because it seemed like it could get messy. Salsa? Ketchup?

And then we arrived! We are just a few minutes walk from the beach and I have no complaints!
