The Dominican Republic

Hi people I am so sorry I have not posted in like forever. I am 10 now.  I just had my b-day on 7/11.  Tomorrow I am going on a camping trip with my class for 3 nights and 4 days.  I am so excited!  Wish me luck, and please pray for me and my family.  

Here is a story I wrote for school.  I hope you will lol :)  If you want, you can comment ( hint hint )

The Time I Went to
the Dominican Republic  

We said goodbye to my mom as we hopped on the plane to the Dominican Republic.

When we arrived at the Dominican Republic it was amazing! Then we drove to the house.

“Wow.” I said. I looked  around me. "This is amazing!” The first thing I saw was a river. “Hi.” my dad said to his friend when he saw him. I went out exploring in their back yard.
“Come over here” my dad said.

“I‘m coming.” He showed us the  guest room. It was amazing. There was a stone shower outside... and how awesome is that? The first thing I saw in the bedroom was a bed. Behind the other house was a pool and I thought to myself, "how cool is that?"

The next day we went to my dad's project because he works with Compassion International.

The project it so cool. The kids there were so cute. There was even a school. 

Then  we went to someones house. It is amazing how much we have and how little they do. They only have three rooms, a bedroom, a kitchen, and family room.  And seven people live in that house. At the house I was playing with the little boy who lived there and all of a sudden I felt something wet on my foot. I looked  down...there was pee on my foot. Apparently he wasn’t potty trained!

After the house we went to the church and all the kids there were so cute. (baby cute.) Later we gave some kids candy and a girl shared  an amazing story about how people made fun of her because her spine was crooked. She got a surgery where they put screws in her back so she could stand up straight. She was really happy she had the opportunity to have the surgery. Later she fell in love and got married.

The boy who pee'd on my foot.

The room where my daddy and I stayed.

The family who lived in the house where we visited.

Later on in the week, we went snorkeling. We went on a boat and it was a very bumpy boat ride.  When we got to the island, it started pouring. The water was crystal clear and you could see everything. The fish swam around and around like a Merry-Go-Round. The coral was beautiful. I also held a starfish. The starfish was red and felt rough.

The next day we woke up at 4 in the morning and hopped on a plane and flew all the way from the Dominican Republic back to Denver.
