SANTO DOMINGO.- Dominicans began their yearly Christmas exodus to different parts of the country to celebrate with relatives and friends.
Suitcases in hand or backpacks at the shoulder, hundreds of people are going to the interurban bus stops where they had to make long lines before boarding the vehicle that will take them to the traditional gathering.
Some bus terminals had to triple their fleet to meet the high demand, as some passengers complain fare gouging as high as 20 pesos.
The holiday spirit felt is also being felt in shopping, which has become a frenzy in the last few days has, according to the retailers themselves.

Hey we all have to go back to work in the US...so that we can afford to come back next Christmas. It's all part of the tradition.
