Student Trip Blog

City Tour!!🎊🎊

Today was a great day! The students woke up early in the morning. We had breakfast: mangu de papas (mashed potatoes), with salami, cheese, and egg. In the Dominican Republic, we call it “los tres golpes” (the three hits). After that, we had some seminars and then walked around town. We visited some places and finally ate ice cream! 🩵🎊🎊 Then we went back home and had lunch: la bandera (rice, beans, and meat). In the afternoon, we planned to play basketball and volleyball, but it wasn’t possible because of the rain🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️. However, we played amongst ourselves and had fun. Then we had more meetings, our dinner, and our night meeting where we elected the first leaders of the day for tomorrow. So stay tuned because starting tomorrow, the students will be sharing about their days with us on the blog.

Wow you guys had an eventful day. The pictures look amazing. Judea and the young lady (maybe Morgan) sitting next to her look related lol. The mashed potatoes sounds yummy. I wish you guys can bring some home to me. I’d like to hear more about the photo with the umbrellas. It looks magical. Have fun. Te veo! 👋🏿

P.s. your eyebrows look great Judea!

Hiya!

Y’all look like you are having a great time. Nice to see some photos and hear about the cool stuff you are doing. Dev, you are missed but I’m sure this time is going to fly by. Looking forward to hearing and seeing more. Mets scores for Mets fans will be provided by Dad 😉. I’m World Cup watching.

To the leaders, much gratitude for all of you!

Warmly,
