Creator's Key Takeaways

I've got a Callo basically that's what I'm talking about so yesterday I felt it tingling I felt it coming and I new straight away and here it is

if you are coming on the boat you need to avoid needing to go to Medical Center hope you don't have to go there

we have arrived in Dominican Republic today first stop sun is just starting to peek through the clouds it's lovely and warm

it feels lovely here much safer than uh yesterday's location we don't feel um nervous venturing off you know steps and explore
