It has rained every day since we have been here. It's not super heavy, so we still go out. Last night we went to a really rich gated neighborhood for a concert. The 2010 bass guitarist of the year in the US came to play last week for a benefit concert and did another show last night that we got to go to. It was very interesting to be in that situation after having been to Caraballo earlier in the day, one of the most impoverished areas near here. I think I felt more pity for the rich people. Their lives seemed a little more pathetic. It was fun to listen to the music and eat pizza though. :)
Today we worked on various projects and continued registering students for the summer camp. We have less than 200 spots available at the camp I will be at and TONS of students have come to sign up. We will post the list of students that have been accepted next Thursday. David is working on writing a music curriculum as well as a camp theme song for this year that everyone will learn. I am currently working on putting together a workshop for the teachers next Saturday. We are going to focus on skills and strategies for increasing comprehension in reading. I am excited to be a part of it!
Right now we are hanging out with our new BFFs, Ashlie and Santos. They have been so welcoming and friendly. We are very grateful to have them here! We are going to plan a trip to the temple in Santo Domingo soon.
