Day 2: WELCOME & history day

We started our first adventure in the Dominican Republican by taking a tour of the city of Constanza! We stopped to look at historical figures, the military base, the Municipal of Constanza, the firefighter department, and a gazebo. Fun fact, you can be a volunteer at the fire department at 9 years old. Also, when we were walking past the military base, we noticed that most of the men were young.

When we returned back to the hotel, there were a lot of bonding between the glimpsers. We decided to put all the tables together to eat our lunch altogether.

After, during our free time we played song association, charades, tag, manhunt and played in the playground.

Everyone had a lot of fun with each other and learned something new about each other. The feeling of community and friendship is definitely growing in the group. For example, at our nightly meeting we end the meeting with “BIG LOVE” where we share shout-outs to recognize the kind actions and accomplishments of others throughout the day. We ended our nightly meeting with lots of big loves!
