Today was a day at the pool, under a Bali Bed, with trips to the from the ocean (a mere couple hundred yards). Read and reread again my two golf
equipment magazines and I am no further along as to what I need.
It was made official today, Miguel is our butler and not Juan. He drops in on me several times a day to talk to "Mr. Geno" to ask
me how I am, and what I want or need. Do I want the jacuzzi filled,
including drinks, snacks etc for a particular hour. He asks about the jacuzzi, the
drinks, the fruit in our room, he asked which bottles of premium booze I want in
the room - I said why not a bottle of Absolut and Baileys (to add to the Rum and
Whisky we already have). My golf is
booked for tomorrow. My a la cart moved to a later time to allow
sufficient time after golf to relax and have a drink. He asked if I wanted
more pillows. I did. I got them. He is always around, always
pleasant, he looks like he wants to be here and is enjoying his work.
Makes a big difference.
Anyway, for lunch we went to the Gabi Beach Restaurant on the other side of
the resort, 5 minute walk. Great food. The menu had prices... $6
enchilada, $12 hamburger, etc. in US dollars. But N/C for Royal Service
guests - good thing or I was walking. LOL.
Then back to the RS pool and RS exclusive portion of the beach as well.
Yep, it the portion with the bali beds on the beach that can also be reserved.
Stayed at the pool later than usual, well after six, since dark falls
later in April than March and it is still light, hot, and nice. More
people around today, but the resort is no where near full. I like that.
Tonight we ate at the RS restaurant called Vento, I have the "pato", Lisa the
pork. Then off to the lounge for a couple games of backgammon, to the
lobby bar for a BMS (I am limiting myself to 2 a day). Sounds boring?
Routine after a mere few days down here? Maybe. Try it!

Shh! This is Lisa from below the surface of the water in the pool shooting
upward. Don't tell her I put these here.
Go to Day 05 or Back to Punta
Cana home
