It's saturday? Wait it's Sunday now since there was no Internet yesterday

I have been in Monte Plata for five days now. Coming down I had absolutely no idea what was in store for me. I got in late on Monday night and spent the night in town being reaquainted with the sounds of roosters and dogs and motorcycles at all hours of the night. School doesn't start until next week so everyone is still enjoying their vacation time. The kids from Casa Monte Plata (CMP) take their own vacations to visit family members but not all of the kids have family members to visit so they usually end up staying at the school or Ramon and Juana's house. In order to give these kids a real vacation a group containing these kids and Juana's family and others from the church went out to camp. When I arrived the had already been there for a few days. So after my night in town we headed out to camp. There was a work group there from Westminster so they were occupying the cabins so we stayed at the top of the property in a little house consisting of two bedrooms with bunk beds and a hallway in-between. The kitchen and bathroom were outside. There was not enough room for everyone inside the house so the boys all slept outside in tents. We had a lot of fun just hanging out and playing volleyball and basketball and a bonfire at night. I also had the wonderful experience of eating pheasant for the first time. I dont plan on repeating that experience. I really enjoyed the relaxing time and getting to reconnect with the people here. We left the next day to come back into town. CMP was still on vacation so we had the two youngest members staying with us in the missionary house. It was fun having the two little boys with us and the adorable smiles they constantly had on their faces. We took the boys back yesterday to CMP since the rest of the kids are coming back today. So now it is just me Melissa (missionary) and Nadelli hanging out and getting Melissa settled in since she hasn't been here long. We went to church last night and when we got home we stayed up telling stories and laughing until midnight. In an attempt to explain what a hillbilly is I ended telling the story of how Luke burned his leg and had everyone laughing. Today another group is arriving from New Jersey and they will be staying at CMP since there is a leadertreks group here from Wheaton academy. We have youth group tonight and then church tomorrow and school starts Tuesday. It's definitely going to be a busy time.
