    Love that place! We visited (US NAVY, USS EDWARD MCDONELL FF 1043) back in APRIL 1988 , I rode that cable car ride up the mountain, have pictures of our ship moored down below from that spot where the Jesus statue is! This brings back memories!!! 😊😊

    Wow, we were on that mountain about 20 yrs. ago. My son and his wife got married in Puerta Plata and our entire wedding party went up the mountain on the cable car( through clouds, I might add) and when we got there on top of the mountain, there were no clouds but there was Jesus! Well, I have to tell you that we had some amazing wedding photos in front of Him. Wow such great memories! Their first child just turned 20! Holy moly! Thanks for sharing your adventure. 👏👏😊

    A number of years ago, we did a B2B cruise on the Carnival Victory and on our stop in Grand Cayman, I bought two bottles of rum and they delivered them to our room on the last night of our first leg of our B2B. We enjoyed a bottle on the 2nd leg and I will finish the rest in the near future. Can't wait to get back on a ship.

      Hey Alison, I also am a cat lover and I have 6 kitties in the house that I took in and more outside that I feed. I bought a big doghouse for the outside ones and filled it with soft blankets for their comfort and in the winter I let them come into my garage. I also had them all fixed and shots. The animal shelter worked with me and gave me low costs. I would do anything to help a defenseless animal. Nice to know that someone else cared for our fury friends.
