I'm Back

So i guess the vacation is over and i'm back to reality. It was so nice to be able to see my family and take a nice long hot bath (haha) but now it's back to cold water and constant sanitizing. The trip back to the D.R. was fairly smooth except for the turbulence just before landing which actually had me garbing the chair in front of me. But then once thru customs i waved down a guy to help with my monster sized bags cause will i'm a girl and that's what we do. I didn't think anything of it until levi pulled the car around and i asked him for some pesos to pay the guy. Well he didn't have any and after spending 10 mins trying to find someplace to get some money we had to sheepishly tell the guys sorry but we don't have any money. I don't think he was to impressed but he took it pretty well. So off we go up over the mountain. Well we tried to go up over the mountain but as soon as we start to climb the car dies. No gas. The lady at the rental said it was full but i guess not. Levi manages to get the car turned around and we are able to coast back down the hill to a gas station hoping that they take credit cards. Thankfully they do and we are off again. finally we arrive and i am back home with my guy and my puppy.

I spent the next three days trying to get the house back to my girly standards and i think i am almost there. It's finally starting to look like a home. Tonight is my first meeting back and it's time to get my Spanish head back on. Lets just hope i haven't lost to much while i was away.

Anyway i should go get some more studying done but i will try to keep you all posted again about life here in the D.R. but please be patient as we do not have the internet at home.
