Las Terrenas, Dominican Republic.- President Leonel Fernandez on Tuesday cut the ribbon to open the Tourist Boulevard of the Atlantic, a route that will link Samaná Peninsula’s most important tourism destinations, built at a cost of 149.5 million dollars.
The Boulevard’s 123 kilometers form a road grid the entire peninsula that includes Nagua-Sánchez-Cruce del Limón-El Limón-Cruce Abra Grande-Las Terrenas-Balatá-El Catey. The funds included a new coastal link between the El Catey International Airport and Las Terrenas.
After cutting the ribbon, Fernandez designated the new road a “panoramic route,” based on its exotic beaches and impressive backdrops such as Bahia Escoces and the Atlantic Ocean.

Fellow, Temetio is right Geographically Speaking Samana is part of the northen zone witch is the Cibao Region,,is just that most of us associate el Cibao with La Vega, Santiago, Puerto Plata region.

NOT, no the Hippo.
From: Dominican Republic, I dislike all politicians and their afiliated parties... "I simply say it AS IT IS!!"
Hippo-ignoramous is too stupid to build something like this and yet - there are those who want him back....
I rather keep me Danilo than bringing some donkey feeder to destroy something as beautiful as this. To some this might mean nothing but to others paradise. I understand some ppl are starving in DR and not moving forwar but others have strived. And they are not drug dealers by the way - they are simply hard working ppl whose seen opportunity and grabbed it by the horns.
By the way, with this world crisis - if Hippo-LOCO would be the president. We would be worse than Haiti and Guatemala together. So at least, we are surviving - trying to stay afloat. Specially, when even the big super powers are strugglish and turning poor. So you smart Dominicans think it through and only think of the right decision. One who still builds and steals or only one who only destroys and steals.
Build and Steals = LIONEL
Destroys and Steals = Hippo-LOCO

Please don't get me wrong, both scenarios are wrong, but given the fact. I rather pick Builds and Steals...
