On February 3rd to the 14th, 1999, I had the opportunity to go to the Dominican Republic. I was chosen one of fourteen students from my highschool to attend this great adventure. This has really changed the way I look at all the material things I have in my life. I am thankful for the things I have, yet my friends in the Dominican have nothing and yet, are very happy. I hope this webpage can at least show the deprivation which they face everyday. |

We met on Feb. 3rd at the school after our exams were over. We got on a bus to head to Toronto and fly to the Dominican the next day. We flew from Toronto to Miami FL, to Puerto Rico, then to the Dominican. We arrived at our location at 10p.m. that night after being up since 4:30a.m. The first day was the most exhausting. |
