For Independence Day, Sra and Grace are taking me to an exPatriot's Independence Day BBQ.
I hope I am not the only person who finds this a bit ironic...
Pleaseandthankyou to Dr. Rolston who wrote to me in an email, "...we will be celebrating independence day. I have a bottle rocket with your name on it!" if only my parents were so generous. (That's to be taken as a challenge momsies and popsicles)
Dear Dr. Rolston, Today, when I am at my Dominican Republic ExPatriot BarBQ, I will most certainly do something very Dominican ExPatriot BarBQ celebratory thing in your honor.
Below are some more photos for you enjoyment. I am beginning to post most of them on facebook, since Blogger only lets me post 5 at a time.

You would be so surprised how nice the insides of these buildings look. And because Puerto Plata is a very touristy place, most stores have bilingual signs.

No, this was not so much a random photo as an observation on how fascinated I am by all things Dominican. Even their trashcans are fun shapes.
Happy 4th of July Sweetheart!
ReplyDeleteIn your honor, your dad and I raise a glass of planters' punch in your honor at the Yacht Club. What did you do to make Professor Rolston want to blow you up in effigy? Mumsicle
