We took this road and its BAD news. A few houses rather shacks few off the cliffs. We almost went off the cliff but its not my time yet.

My overall impression of the road and what changed: I drove it 9 times this past trip.

Yes a bunch of houses close to the Santiago side collasped.

Other then that I noticed two additional missing shoulders but marked and less then a foot loss.

Yes the previous bad parts are still there, just adding what's new.

2600 miles driven in the DR now. I can almost drive the mountain route blindfolded.

I check the mileage on rental cars, always have even though you don't get charged by the mile.

Took the road from Santiago Saturday 1/08 morning. It's fine now, and has been cleared of debris (for now). Some pretty bad mudslides were there, no doubt. I hope there was no one in the shacks that fell into the valley...

I love to see the innovative way the Dominican kids find to make a few pesos. I saw a new one (for me); 2 kids clearing rocks and packing fresh dirt into holes on a bad stretch of road. They were working their asses off, all covered in mud, and actually making progress-something the DR government can't seem to do. My novia praised them, and gave them each two 5 peso coins...

Thats enough for some candy, more than their parents ever gave them.

There are 3 ways from Sosua, all have candy on the road.
