Hello friends and family at home!
The Wat DR service team has arrived in La Romana
safely. We flew through check-in at JFK
airport in record time, savored our last American breakfast, and enjoyed a fast
and comfortable flight to Santo Domingo.
As divine payback for our stateside airport good fortune, we waited in
an extraordinary long and slow-moving line at customs.
How did we pass those two and half long hours? Practicing our new personal hygiene routine: Purell,
Purell, Purell. Playing the picnic game—you
can bring an umbrella but not a raincoat, a puppy but not a dog, and a Picasso
but not a Van Gogh. (Did you figure it
out?) Doing some faux-yoga to alleviate
the stress on our tired backs.
Our incredible team stayed positive throughout, using the
extra time as an opportunity to bond with one another. We chose to laugh instead of complain. Fortunately, from there on out we encountered no more hiccups. Not one of our 106 checked bags was lost, and so we boarded two busses to the compound
filled with music, naps, and of course—more games.
We’re here. We’re excited.
We’re well-fed and showered. And
of course, we’ll update you soon with more of our adventures.
Hasta luego,
The DR Team
