Hello! This is Xander and Jayla, your leaders of the day, writing the day 4 blog! Today, we made our way back to La Salle on a super 2-hour, 45-minute-long bus drive. Before we left Sosua, which was the city we spent the night in, we stopped at a souvenir shop to purchase little trinkets and jewelry for you guys back at home!
Once back at La Salle, we had a quick but good lunch before visiting the non-profit Plan Yaque for a briefing on our Community Action Project (CAP). For our CAP we will be helping to restore a trail! This means building benches, fixing the trail, and making signs. We are all excited for the work ahead and are looking forward to six more days of fun!
