Yea, I know what the scene is like normally during this time, but wondering if anybody is actually in town right now, and how its looking. |

The DR was actually pretty busy with chicas yesterday afternoon and last night. There were two tables going in the poker room last night. There was a nice selection for "company". There wasn't much competition bartering with the usual "cien". I believe everything will change tonight when the sale of alcohol will end at midnight and re-open Saturday night at Midnight. (I could be wrong about the times) |

Saturday and Sunday are normal day as far as alcohol sales are concerned. |

I went out for a walk today down the two pedestrian walkways and there were a number of people out and about. There were some stores open, mostly clothing stores, but McD's and Burger King were open. Tomorrow should be the real shutdown day. I plan to take some video and post it on my blog, stay tuned! |

Just got back today from one week at the SL. There was police tape over the liquor cabinets at the bar. No mas until 12:01 Saturday AM. But you can keep liquor in your room and pour your own and bring back to the bar, I confirmed this with the owner, Bill. |

i'm here right now, the SL is full i think. many, if not all of us, have stocked up on alcohol so that's no problem. beginning of week no problem with ladies, but yesterday and today i figure will be fewer ladies. i emailed a favorite who showed up yesterday and she provided me with my best session ever. today, good friday, i figure will be dead. but let's see. happy to be here as always. |

I don't know about the DR, but the SL was open for food a few years ago during Good Friday. I took my married friends there. No girls, older section of town, and good food. They were impressed and I reinforced my image of frequenting, "good places". I'm stocked to the hilt with booze. |

Glad to see you found some companionship today! Even better, glad we had a chance to meet at the SL and swap a few stories. |

I have video of Friday during Semana Santa. Take a look if you'd like to know what it was REALLY like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcwnFCKNHeQ (or you can see it on the blog) |

There were a few stragglers here and there. And the cops were out in force... no danger and double time pay. Muy Tico. |
