Today we arrived in the Dominican Republic. The girls were anxious for the first day because they had the opportunity to get on the internet and call home. We walked around Samana to get a feel for the place and pick up a few souvenirs. Our first challenge was finding a way to exchange money to get pesos and the second was brushing up on our Espanol for those of us who don't speak it regularly. I was disappointed in myself because after 6 semesters of Spanish my speech was horrible!
It's the day before Easter and we decided to have the girls dye eggs to get them in the Easter spirit. Each girl got to dye 2 eggs and we are planning on taking them ashore tomorrow as part of lunch. As for the rest of our Easter plans, Lizzie, the cook, bought a bunch of plastic eggs for us to fill with candy and a box of Cadbury Eggs for the girls, so after church (for those that want to go) we are doing an egg hunt on the boat. I hope the girls don't miss Easter too much with their families!
Happy Easter to all those at home!!
