A Little taste of Dominican

Cows and dogs having breakfast. Breaks my heart.

It is very common to see women wearing huge curlers in public.

Mannequins along the street. Quite often I mistake them for real people.

 Most businesses have parking attendants. We were directed to park on the sidewalk. The guy loved having his picture taken. At least we were in the shade!

The night before we took this picture, this dead tree limb fell across the street just as we got there. Kim cleared the limbs on the sidewalk to the right so we could get by.

Our 3rd semester Pathway students. They are like family to us.

Our 1st semester Pathway students. Another awesome group!

One of my students in my Friday class joined the church!

A couple of takes on how to spell lasagne (check out the small box to the right). Actually the Spanish version makes more sense to me than the English version.

Roasted piggy tails and other various parts?????? Along with some of their ?sausage? and other pork? delights!

Same business as above. This is a fresh pig head and it looks like jerky drying??? Yum???

Satellite dish and telephone pole propped up by another stick.

A sight on our way to church. Looks like someone is having chicken for Sunday dinner!

Tobacco hanging in a drying shed. I'm not sure when they start growing the tobacco again.

Harvesting the rice. Even little ones help.

Pineapple field

Combine to harvest rice. It was a very hot day but still a guy wearing a sweatshirt. Maybe it keeps the dust off of him.

This is a very common sight along the roads. You can just choose your dinner. Notice the bunnies on the bottom left.

Christmas starts early here. This was up in our lobby and ready to go on Oct. 15. Looks like a little one helped. All the balls are at the bottom.

Pineapples on the sidewalk.

These carts with plantains are a very common sight in the neighborhoods. Love these guys hats!

Shops set up in the middle of a divided road. Notice the car on the right coming up the wrong way - a very common happening.

There is so much garbage!!! There are usually people going through it.
