update from the DR

Tomorrow we are going up to the Parque Nacional de los Haitises. It should be a fun trip. We are staying here. Won't be back until wednesday evening I think so no pics or updates until then. I think we will be out of email contact completely. 
Dominicanos speak a spanish that I am having a hell of time trying to understand. For one, many of them that I deal with aren't very educated. But to make it even harder, apparently Dominicanos don't pronounce the letter/sound "s". So "buenos dias" becomes "buen dia". This makes is very hard to follow what they are saying. I am slowing getting used to it, now that I recognize some of the issues.
