Last post of the DR

Hey there everyone I hope you are all having a great day. This was our last full day in the DR, and it was awesome. We took a sweet hike up to see 2 waterfalls. The first hike was over 4 rope and board bridges. It was pretty wobbly but it was fun, then the students and leaders who wanted to go see another waterfall got the hike of their life. We went about 500 feet higher then the first waterfall. In this hike we got to jump off a rock that was about 25 feet off the water, It was really fun to watch all of our students conquer their fear of jumping off the rock.

We will have some pictures from that hike on here later.

Then we went into town today and cleaned out the super market of Vanilla and Coffee. It was so much fun walking around and seeing the town up close and personal. We also stopped off and saw the people at SI, for those who have gone with our group from CVMC they would know that name.

We are back at our base camp now, getting ready for dinner, the ladies are packing all their little jewelery they bought and the men are getting their things packed and cleaning a little.

Tomorrow we are leaving the base at 5;15am, and our flight leaves at 8:55am. We arrive in Miami at 10;55am, we then have a lay over in Miami until 2:25pm. We will be back at Chicago Ohare at 5:25pm (chicago time) We hope to be home to CVMC at 9pm (Indiana time). This is obviously can change with anything that goes on at the airport, so please please please pray for us tomorrow, our students are tired, and when you have to travel with tired teenagers well....... :)

So please pray that everyone sleeps well tonight and we get through all the security and get our bags back.

We will be home tomorrow. We can't wait to see you all tomorrow night


PS - I am writing this message while Andrew Jones, Ross Jones, and Raleigh Bontrager are here and they want to to give a shout out to Barb Jones :)

See you tomorrow

P.A.
