Good evening!!! The day has been good. Coffee with a mom from school, trip to Puerto Plata to purchase a lamp for Drew so he could see what he's reading "no luck", Mariah had a play date with her class mate Lelia, wow they live one block from kite beach and it was wonderful to look in the sky and see all the kites and feel the ocean breeze. Drew went with me to my Spanish lesson and we had the lesson together it was wonderful. Great sushi at a restaurant we discovered on the way home this evening.
On a sad note there was an awful accident 10 min from the house yesterday where 18 people were killed. I checked the news etc and did not see any reports. The parties involved were a truck load of Haitians and big tour bus. I inquired about not hearing ambulances or such and the folks at the bar laughed so hard, on guy said you would be lucky if someone threw you in the back of there car or truck and gave you a lift to the hospital. The wreck was awful with people dismembered, these drivers are so crazy I am going to stick to my slow pace.
Doug is back in Durham and collecting all the things we ask him to bring we are waiting his arrival on Saturday.
I have come to appreciate the simple things in life like ice cream that stays frozen until it gets to your freezer at home...its not happening here its melted before you drive away from the super. Having central ac oh the wonders. Hardly ever any bugs or lizards in your home, we always have lots. The cat calls from all the Dominican's it really gets old. The safety I feel in America, there are so many POOR people here break ins and crime is high, I am always conscience to lock the bars on the doors of the house and to lock my car, I was slack about this in Durham. There's more but I need to check Drew's homework.
God Bless America and You,
Missy
