Beach Adventures

The first weekend in the DR!! That means beach day!!!!! We took a "contro" (sp?), it works like a bus, it has a specific route, but it's a car. All 6 of us (Andrew, Beth, Amy, Ally[an american teacher in her second year], Warlin[a dominican teacher], and me) were in the same one, yes it's only a car, but that's how they work. And that took us to the bus station. The bus took us to Sosua, where the beach is. We rented some umbrellas and spent the day lazing about.

I also need to mention the best part. The bus station and the bus itself were AIR CONDITIONED!!!! It was heavenly.

Also, Andrew and I had WATER TODAY!!! Yay, showers and clean dishes!

Also, tonight I made the most perfect tostones(fried plantains). They turned out great. Just how they are supposed to.

Also, check it out! Pictures of our apartment and our beach adventure. courtesy of Andrew!

Finally, here's a little preview for tomorrow: laundry day. Now I've got you on the edge of your seat...

  1. Keep those pictures coming! Looks like a sweet little place. I also truly appreciate the fact that Michael Scott is on television for the living room picture. :) ~Laura
