tamarindo afternoon!

anne, shallan, and i went to tamarindo (the village where the school is) to hang out with some of the kids. anne brought her hacky sac, we learned new hand-clapping games, spent the time running in and out of the houses when it rained (dominicans generally do NOT like the rain. and by "do not like" i mean they won't go in it if it can be avoided), took some pictures (see below)..

oh! and we played the greatest game of baseball ever: 1 stick, 1 empty plastic bottle (our baseball) and 3 bases total. FUN.

this is where one of our students lives.me with some of the precious kids. the one on the far left is Wilsenci and he's in my preschool class!
i like their house colors.
jamilay (probably spelled wrong) on the right was the organizer of the baseball game!
stinkin' cute.
love this one of luis miguel ("luigi") and his little brother :)
