After a very long travel day, we started our morning around 9 a.m. eating home made pancakes with a nice spread of fresh pineapple, papaya, and cantaloupe. Our task for today was to prep everything for this next week working in med clinics and the construction site. We sorted thousands of different medications, packed hygiene kits, and sorted through hundreds of shoes to distribute at both work sites. Around noon we stopped to eat lunch and then picked back up from where we left off. At 3:30 our work day came to an end. We all took a group trip to Jumbo to buy snacks and experience a little bit more of the Dominican Republic culture. Upon returning to Casa Pastoral, we were able to cool off and enjoy a little bit of down time. Shortly after, we ate dinner and had our first power outage of the week due to weather! We ended the night learning how to take blood pressures in the dark and preparing an English lesson plan to teach to the students at Rodney Henrickson School later in the week, but more on that to come…
