Dominican Republic "inexhaustible"


Year-round sports, effervescent nightlife, distinctive souvenir shopping, magnificent national parks, and world class gambling make for a jam-packed vacation to do list. But when you see the spectacular beaches, you might just want to pull up a chair and relax.

Outdoor activities like golf, snorkeling, windsurfing, kiteboarding, and boating are a thrilling way to experience the natural beauty of land and sea. With over two-dozen national parks, other quieter options for communion with nature like hiking and bird watching are also available. Indoor activities offer you the chance to strike it rich, dance the night away, or shop for curious mementos like carnival masks, amber, and a strange, liquid cure-all called Mamajuana

The Panama Canal celebrates 94 years


On August 15, 1914, a steamship called the S.S. Ancon began navigating its way through the 50-mile-long Panama Canal that would soon become the maritime world’s most famous shortcut. The Canal opened its giant miter gates that day, and global commerce has grown ever since.

Today, Panama, because of globalization, the Canal, and its ideal and strategic location, is booming. The country is steadily becoming the transportation and logistics hub of the Americas. And the Panama Canal sits at the center of this boom. Every year, more than five percent of the world’s trade transits the Panama Canal. By 2010, the Canal expects that it will celebrate its one-millionth transit.
