Grateful for warm, clean, sanitary water!

We are back from the Dominican Republic. We had a great time. It was so tiring, but a great experience. A lot of our pictures are on my brother in laws camera, so I am hoping to get them today and I will post pictures. Hope everyone is doing well. I will have many long post to follow about our amazing adventure.
This video below was of the kids at the first Batey that we went to. They were singing their National Anthem. It was bitter sweet to hear these kids chant this. They were chanting it with so much pride for a country that they will never leave. They live in these Batey's out in the sugar cane fields and the owners pay them little to nothing so that they have little chance of leaving.
