Day Eight - March Madness

Editor’s note…The R&R was paid by each participant themselves so that no fundraising went towards it….

Jesse’s play by play…

Today was the R&R at the Dominican Bay Resort just outside of Santo Domingo. First we had a long four hour car ride from San Juan de la Magenta. We checked in and then headed to the beach. The fact that we were tourists settled in fast as a cloud of Dominican peddlers flaunted their merchandise. Various gifts were bought by all.




(did I mention that our girls aren't camera shy??)

The ocean was beautiful and we played Frisbee in the water. After a great afternoon of swimming, the weather turned ugly in the evening. A torrential downpour followed. After much dancing in the rain by some, the R&R continued through the night. (photos available upon request )

The trip was definitely a memorable one, enjoyed by all. With many memories and friends made, the Dominican Republic will remain in our hearts forever.
