Easter Is Over, but the Egg Hunt's Still On
Here I sketched my son playing a ball on the Punta Cana beach. It’s a picture with some twist though :)
No, it’s not that I’m ‘jealous’ watching all my offspring's frolicking as we are restricting ourselves only to cautious ventures into the bush in our backyard where you could probably find some snow in shady spots.
I’m glad for them!
His family leads fairly comfortable and,--arguably--somewhat unconventional life style in Dominican Republic despite all the virus scare that has seized the world since a few months ago.
His wife is an avid wedding photographer, and he himself is a ‘jack of all trades’ in the world of digital technology.
However, for one particular reason their wedding photography income tanked—as you know, all kind of tourism to DR (as anywhere else) almost ceased to exist.
Incredibly, but the debacle turned out to be... a fortuitous circumstance on the part of his technological exploits. A while ago—may be a couple of years ago—well before we knew anything about the virus, he created an app to facilitate the live streaming from the wedding events. It wasn’t an immediate hit, and there were just a few downloads a month at most.
But lately the situation has changed remarkably. Shortly after the virus got its rein over the globe, and all the countries have locked their borders, people missing the normal communication started to look for online solutions. And here we go—now he’s cooking with his app!
And I tried to convey that sense in my sketch—catching ‘the golden eggs’ while playing on the beach :)
