Well. Today had a big disappointment in Puerto Plata.
I had booked an excursion that seemed incredibly size-inclusive — an ATV ride to a beach with a weight limit of 600 pounds. Wow, right?
Well, when my husband and I got to the excursion meeting port we were told the weight limit is 200 pounds. So we didn’t get to go.
Instead we had cold drinks and fried plantains in the port, bought a magnet, watched some parrots, and took a tuktuk back to the ship where we ordered room service and napped and reveled in the air conditioning.
Luckily the Shore Things team made things right and refunded us the cost of the excursion. Hopefully this feedback will also lead to fixing the listing so no one else gets excited to ride an ATV and gets turned away.
