Some reasons why I usually say crazy person in my head:
-There are no traffic laws and drive-through liquor bars exist so that you may literally drink & drive.
-A few days ago there was no running water at work due to Hurricane Irene which never even arrived.
-The inequality between social classes is amazing, as life in the capital is similar to the cost of living in the US, while many salaries are only about $150/month.
Ok yes, the people are friendly. Ok yes, the country is beautiful. Ok yes, the fruit is delicious. But as for me, I'm a tough crowd. To be perfectly honest, its going to take some more winning over than the sunshine and pristine beaches.

If its happy people, then the DR certainly wins in my book.
