Sabbath day

Today we were able to sleep in till 7:30 .We attended a Baptist Church which was in spanish but Victor interpreted it in english. It was very lively with a Korean Pastor which was very good and also had extremely loud gospel music.During the service our group went up to the front to sing a song and they ended up joining in,in spanish.

After lunch a few of us finally got to have a short nap.

In the afternoon we drove to the old part of Santo Domingo to take many pictures. It was a beautiful town with many old buildings and plenty of history.

Tomorrow morning its back to work with the locals!
