D.R.

Last Sun. us girls got to go to the Dominican Republic for the day. Our mission has a branch over there and there was a work team from Canada here that wanted to go over to visit so Matt said he’ll take care of the boys if us girls want to go along!!

Veronika and I ready to go!! :

We went to church there and had lunch with our dear friends, Tom and Laurie, and the Bill Jones family. Then in the afternoon we went to a place called the aqua-ducts. It was just gorgeous!! I am a nature lover/tree hugger and that is something I miss dreadfully here in Haiti so this was especially special to  me! There are a bunch of little water falls and it was the first time Veronika ever saw anything like that! At first she wasn’t sure what to think about the crashing falls; she just stared:145147

But she sure enjoyed the quiet waters:

Girls day out!! Such fun! I 'm so happy and sad at the same time that Dadou gets to go home. Hope I can still see her when I get back!
