So it's almost 6 weeks since we left home. We are feeling very much at home in our little condo in Sosua, Dominican Republic. We took our laptop with us but have had so much grief trying to find a suitable place to access the internet, that we mostly resorted to internet cafes, using their computers.
It has been an absolutely enriching experience. Right now we suddenly have wireless internet access in our condo and I am feeling exhiliarated. We have been sending mass e-mailings as updates on what we have been involved in and new experiences we have had.
The large group we were anticipating as part of Vacation With a Purpose has come and gone. It was a busy time with both beaching and running 4 medical clinics hiring local doctors, doing some food and clothing distributions, childrens activity, a community picnic, youth beach pizza party women's and men's meetings.
Oops, just got company. A local pastor, Garcia, just dropped by to discuaa some security issues related to their church/school building out in the country. He and another person have been sleeping on the cement floor this week to make sure the place is safe.
Will try to make further entries as able.
