    and another thing…i only wished our rivers looked like this…only the swim holes are deep enough to enjoy..the rest of the river as shallow as ever…streams..brooks…. with an increase in homes with plumbing i can understand…but or leaders should ensure that people stop the deforestation…stop selling land in close proximity to the rivers

      Sooner or later all them little pools will soon dry up the them people in DA cutting down all them trees to make coal, this saying that DA have 365 rivers is not true since many of them pool all one can see is a pool like them potable children swimming pool

    why that guy choose to swim with his vest on….is the same thing…Dominicans eating too much…he don’t want to expose his fat stomach

    i mean the roll of fat at the base of his head is a hereditary thing but with smaller portion the belly fat can be reduced.

      Tiny, if you look well to the left under the water, a woman is bathing only with her panty hose.
      What do you have to say about her?

    first thing i noticed was how refreshing and green the water looks…second thing, the rubbish in the upper right hand corner. Third thing, the intense feeling of disgust building inside me.

      your disgust must stem from the fact that you are not in a position to enjoy this clear, cool water. So keep on hating but hope it does not choke you.
