La Romana - Day 1 (2/2/14)

Greetings from La Romana!!  Wascar, Kevin, Gary and I arrived in La Romana yesterday afternoon. We are part of a nine person team that will be installing water filters and building a latrine on two bateys.  We will also be delivering the dictionaries and school supplies to the schools. 

This morning we went to Baraca to a Baptist church service and see the school that we will be delivering the school supplies to this week.  The services were very energetic and spirited!  We also had a brief tour of the school and met with one of the teachers.

 

As we were driving back to the house we drove by the neighborhood "recycling center". 


Tomorrow we will be going to the hospital for the hand washing education and then off to the batey to start with the latrine...

More to come tomorrow...
