Day 3

Hi guys! Today is the day the first team comes in!!! Later tonight, the team will be coming in from Miami and will be brought to the Guest House (2-story, 30 bunk beds) where I will be staying the majority of my time.

Per Mom's request, I am sharing photos...

I was able to relax on the gazebo patio this morning after eating my almond, corn flakes with coconut milk (both a new and good experience for me.) I couldn't help but be intrigued and take a "Selah" moment to see creation as it is, blooming without Mankind's interference, colorful to the eye and showing those who see it how much detail God puts into even the small things in this crazy thing called Life.

This view, my friends, is the Dominican Republic off the gazebo patio just this morning...

Beautifully speechless, right?

My supervisor for the summer, Brian, brought me into his home last night to meet some of his family as they celebrated his son's kindergarten graduation with a cookout--- Dominican-style of course ---which was wonderful beyond words (I just might have to get some recipes of how they cook their food!)

This is Rancho de La Paz, or Peace Ranch in English. Its name rings true as it is peaceful with its spring-fed swimming pool and gazebo patio with wooden chairs looking out the beautiful view I shared above. 

So, what am I doing today? Relaxing until the teams come in between 8-9 pm tonight. I cannot wait to meet new people and see all that they plan to do for their week here. 

Until later, 

Dios te Bendiga, (or God Bless You.)
