[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why on earth did she go to DR? [/quote]
Why not? We have high incomes and could go anywhere but frequently go there for thr direct flights, short distance from airport to residence, etc [/quote]

DP.  Are you aware the DR has had a U.S. State Dept. Level 2 Travel Advisory since last June?   :roll:

Reissued after periodic review without changes.

Exercise increased caution in the Dominican Republic due to crime.

Country Summary: Violent crime, including armed robbery, homicide, and sexual assault, is a concern throughout the Dominican Republic. The development of a professional tourist police corps, institution of a 911 system in many parts of the country, and a concentration of resources in resort areas means these tend to be better policed than urban areas like Santo Domingo. The wide availability of weapons, the use and trade of illicit drugs, and a weak criminal justice system contribute to the high level of criminality on the broader scale.
