Well after the months of preperations and waiting i´m here!  I am currently sitting in an internet cafe in San Juan Dominican Republic.  I left Friday morning and headed to Miami.  It was a pretty lonely flight until I got to Miami and met up with my squad.  We didn´t get much sleep that night mostly because we stayed up at the airport and greeted people as they came in.  Yesterday we flew 2 hours into Santo Domingo and then rode in a bus for 4 hours to San Juan.  The Dominican countryside is beautiful!  Lush and green and mountainous.  I´m definately doing some hiking here.  Also they food is really good.  Right now we´re in training.  But I hope to write another blog soon that is longer and has picture when I have more time.  I miss you all.
