How beautiful is Dominican?
I'm going in March 2013 (3 months!) for my cousin's wedding. It's my first time going to Dominican and I'm unreal excited. I'm staying at the Majestic Colonial Resort on Bavaro Beach. I've been down south before but not on a resort, it was an outdoor ed grad trip to Belize. So I don't really know what it's to stay on a resort. Is it really hot in March? Should I bring my Nikon camera? Are the sunsets beautiful? How much money should I bring for excursions? (I'm really outdoorsey) AND will I love it?
Why spoil the fun? Wait until you get there so it would be a surprise and of course you should bring a your Nikon camera

Take Care
I just looked up your resort. It looks beautiful. A few years ago, we stayed north of your resort at Excellence Punta Cana and had a blast. When you do excursions, book them at the tour desk of your resort. You can then use a credit card. Don't fall for the cut rate scams that you may be offered at the airport. There's plenty to do and see, so yes take your Nikon with you. I also have a Nikon D80 which I love to take on holidays with me. Because there may be people that might want to take your picture using your camera, you may want to take an inexpensive one along also. I have a little Canon digital just for that purpose. I have visions of the person running away with my camera, so losing the Canon wouldn't hurt so much. If they insist on using your Nikon, just say the battery died.
This web site will give you some ideas of the excursions available. Also don't book on line. This is just to show you what is available, not an advertisement. The weather will be warm to hot.http://www.viator.com/Punta-Cana/d794-ttd
