There are 170 Peace Corps volunteers here in the Dominican Republic and nearly all of us came together for the yearly Thanksgiving feast. I won’t make a list but the feast was everything and more than it always is including vegetarian lasagna and pecan, pumpkin pies and three types of brownies and cookies. The volunteers at my table and I shared what we were thankful for including each other, the experience, generous Dominicans and our outhouses among others. We also celebrated with a morning 5.5k Turkey Trot, a domino tournament and an unforgettable “lack of talent” show that turned out to be quite amazing.
The Turkey Trot's anchorwomen - my good friends Cecilia and Kathy. You may remember Cecilia from earlier posts - we came in together and we'll go out together. She's the only one who understands it all!
The joy of being able to stop running!
