... the back of a truck, it actually tastes pretty good! The malecon is always a good time, full of fun and laughter and friends, and you always bump into someone that you know! <br><br>On the last day of Ian's visit, we decided to drive to the province of El Seybo, which is 2 provinces to the north of San Pedro de Macoris (where I am located). I have never been there before, and I have heard so many times how beautiful it is, as it is tucked in the ...

... come with any appliances, and even fewer ever have an actual oven...most Dominicans use their ovens for storage and not for actual cooking)! I think it might very well be my favorite thing that I own here...but the new fridge is also pretty good - it was already here. The "stove" is quite typical Dominican-style...propane powered counter-top burners.. The propane tank is new, and sits beneath the sink, which is very common here ...

Fui a ir en el autobus a la Romana. Fui a ver los edificios de viejo. Fui a comprar en la comercial de la Romana. Fui a comer en los restaurantes bien. Fui a comer chuleta al carbon. Fue muy bien. Fui a quidar en Hotel Casa del Mar. Fui a sacar muchos fotos por el ciudad.

... that are so different unite in this way. After, the younger children in the community all rushed to see the visitors, and they were tugging at hands and crawling into laps at every chance they had! This was a really special experience for me, and I am kicking myself that I did not remember to bring my camera! Anyway...back to my typical day. The classes are between 45 minutes to an hour long, and at some schools I have 2 different classes to go to ...

... Dane, a Great Dane / lab mix, and a Lab / Pit-bull mix. The Great Dane is called Tyson, and he has just been fixed this week (the vet came to the house, laid him across the table, gave him some sedation / freezing, and chopped his goods off onto the floor...welcome to the Dominican!) As a result, he was a bit keyed up because he is having a hard time staying comfortable. The dane/lab mix is called Sophie, and she is lovely. She is currently ...

... Off I went to the electronics department (quite extensive in terms of equipment, not so much in terms of accessories - such as CDs, jewel cases, etc.) The CDs were nowhere to be found, so I asked someone, and they led me to the cosmetics counter (of course! What was I thinking...why wouldn't I assume that the CDs would be kept there??) Sure enough, there they were locked up in a cabinet by the register. She asked me how many I wanted, and I said ...

Hello all! Greetings from Consuelo, DR! This is the first entry to chronicle my travels, so it is going to be a bit longer...Saturday morning I woke up early to be at the airport at 6. Scott and my dad took me in 2 cars, as I had TONS of luggage. I had a snag with the luggage at the airport, as it cost more than they told me it would when I called to inquire...but they let one of the bags go for free, which was good, because as ...

... more notorious thugs/ boozehounds (ages 15 and 20) began fighting in the bus and broke a seat, thus forcing the driver to pull over and kick them off the bus. Not discouraged by the change of venue, the boys continued fighting in the middle of the street and oncoming traffic, thus prompting the police to get involved. This is shocking because Dominican police usually dont even raise a finger until rigor mortis has set in, so their presence alone is note-worthy. The ...

... 9:30pm to return to my community. However, once we arrived to my community they were not ready to quit dancing and had the radio in the truck on and were dancing in the street. Otherwise, I am fine. The infections seem to be gone or going away. The only problem right now is the occasional hot day and mosquitos that still keep biting me. The problem is that I keep scratching and then this causes an infection. My dog is doing fine and she went today to get her ...

... to the entrance of Cabreto. In my house there are three people: My mom (hueso (bone) or altagracia), My sister (Fransciesca), and my brother (hiroa). I enjoy them so much and they are just so nice. It is interesting how people in the camposinos do not have a lot, but they are willing to share what they have more than those in the Capital. I was happy to leave the capital because my other family was treating me pretty bad. You could slice the tension in the house with ...
