The day we arrived in Punta Cana we went straight to the pool, it was 3:00 in the afternoon and the crowd at the bar was well on their way to being wasted. We were immediately approached by a large drunk man who was lettin' it all hang out! He and his friend "That guy" seem to take a liking to us. They were accompanied by their equally smashed wives. Andrew and I, being completely sober spent the whole strange, slurred conversation trying to plan our escape. As we finally got away, we thought "It may be hard to find some cool people to hang out with, everyone is beyond the level of WASTED that we ever get!" So set the search for "Our Couple"
As we strolled the pool we noticed other couples drinking, napping, dancing, reading, smoking, not speaking English etc... we laughed as we realized we were very picky (we don't smoke and don't drink too often). Some couples appeared too boring, too crazy, too drunk, too young or too old. We felt more like swingers on the search then just a fun but, not overly wild couple just looking for some interesting conversation and drinks with new friends.

As the "Mama Juana" shots started to spread at the swim up bar, we got into "Vacation mode"! We ended up making several new friends from Canada, different areas of the US and Europe, all ages & nationalities. A new group of travelers came in daily so "our couple" changed daily as-well. We had a great time everyday and night and created life long memories and probably left an impact on many people we came in contact with as-well (some good, some maybe not so much) Andrew did tell a guy he had "nice nips" on one of our crazy days! And we had several occasions when someone looking vaguely familiar walked by and said "HEY!!!" All in all we wouldn't change a thing but, we are happy to be back home in our "non-drinking", "back to training" life!
