Good evening everyone, this week has been nothing but amazing
and I am so glad that I came back for my 3rd time! Today, we took
the campers to see iguanas’ habitats and they learned so much valuable
information that will help them improve their communities. After the iguanas we
went to lunch, which was a blast. But, the best part was saved for last. After
lunch, we took the campers to the beach, which may not sound special because
they live in a country where the beach is in their back yard. However, due to all
the industrialization and economic growth the Dominican Republic is going
through they are not able to see the beaches. What I mean by this is, the resorts
and the government control who is able to go to the beaches, so for citizens of
the Dominican Republic they cannot just walk to the beach anytime they want.
This is sad to hear, but very much true. So long story short, the beach trip is
the most unique experience on this trip because of how much it means to the
camper. Next up tomorrow is the trash pickup in the campers community so we
will keep everyone in touch!
