Day Seven

After I finished the blog yesterday it did rain a steady pour well into the night. Leona did not go anywhere because of it, it seems when it rains people stay put, they do not like to get damp and cold , can't say as I blame them.
The rain did stop so it was a dry trip to the school in the morning, we are about a 10 minute motorcycle ride away. It stayed cloudy , saw the sun a bit at lunch time but that was it.
Today was Awana day as you can see on the pictures or as it is called here Owansa. The kids love it, I could tell by all the screaming that was going on outside.
Herman continued working on the drawers, the sliders that were already in place he had to take of and replace with wooden ones. The drawers were sticking to much and were just not working right, over time the other ones get bent and cause more problems, some times the old way is better.
I continued working on my sewing project for Leona, reupholstering her chairs and couch pillows. By 3:30 I had enough and started to walk home you have to watch where you walk arround here as you can see by the big hole in the sidewalk, they are quite common.
The other picture is of a cemetery, this is how they bury the dead, you rent one of those crypts for as long as you like or can afford. Leona said Angelo's brother was buried there, he died in an accident 5 years ago, they rented one for 5 years then they take the remains and have them burned. Different isn't it?
Thats all for today folks will fill you in again tomorrow till then take care, love from us here in the DR
