The river was more of a swimming hole, and the water was absolutely freezing. After eating the hot cancocho in this Dominican heat, we were more than ready to get wet. We had such a blast! It's been so fun going to places that I didn't get to see while I was here.

Benjamin with his niece and nephew Anthony and Rosi
Once we got there, Jon busted out his guitar and started belting it. The Dominicans were mesmerized by his song. It was short lived though because soon after more people came and their trucks blasted Dominican music so the serenity of the place quickly escaped.
getting ready to start cooking!
when you forgot the lid to the pot, make one
waiting for the sancocho
sancocho takes a long time to make...
They insisted that I take a picture in front of the sancocho so everyone back home would think I was the chef. Sure, okay. Yes, I've got mad cooking skills.
The water was absolutely freezing, but felt so good after that hot soup. We played around for a while, and those who didn't want to get wet inevitably did. Overall a really great day!
