We got the chance to try fresh sugarcane while at one of the villages. Here’s a photograph of our machete wielding translator preparing a piece of sugarcane for us. And I must add that the sugarcane was very tasty.

Day two in the Dominican Republic we started our day painting a church. While having lunch onsite I noticed this boy practicing with his slingshot. I really wanted to shoot the slingshot with him but shortly after this photo we had to leave to our next adventure of the day.

Also while painting the church my family group decided to paint me.

Our first full day in the Dominican Republic we visited a village that we would return to at least four time throughout the week. The kids in the village loved playing with cameras. This little guy even took a picture of the back of my camera after I made this photography, I love his enthusiasm!

Our first night of worship in the Dominican Republic. I’m thankful that John McCullough was with us to lead our praise and worship time. I can’t think of a better why to start a mission trip!

Tomorrow I will be traveling to the Dominican Republic on a mission trip with our church and because of the lack of internet access, I will not be blogging a photo a day for Project 366 next week. I’ll still be making photos everyday but they will not make it on my blog until I get back. have a great week everyone.
