{ON A MISSION (TRIP)} La Romana, Dominican Republic - 2023

 Our sweet B left early Sunday morning to head out on a mission trip with our church...


After traveling by bus to Charlotte, and then flying from Charlotte to Miami to Punta Cana, they arrived safely at their destination, in La Romana, that evening.

B and the team spent 5 days contributing in a variety of ways from building a multi-family home...


to serving at VBS...


to distributing manna packs...

They were even able to make time for a morning at the beach...

What an incredible and life-changing experience for our B!

{CARIBBEAN} Days Thirteen & Fourteen - Amber Cove, Dominican Republic + AT SEA

So, yesterday Hubby and the kids were set to dock in Amber Cove, Dominican Republic, and had a grand ziplining adventure planned. Hubby got the kids up early, grabbed breakfast, and got ready to disembark first thing, but alas, plans are only plans...


THIS is about all they saw of the Dominican Republic...


For some unforeseen circumstances (the captain said it was the winds), as they pulled into the port, they did a u-turn!


What a bummer!


So, yesterday became an at sea day, and kind of morphed into today, another (previously planned) at sea day...

Over the last two days, the kids spent some time in the hot tub...


went for a run...


and enjoyed the onboard entertainment, including Voice of the Ocean!


Planning to finish up the trip back in Fort Lauderdale tomorrow. Let's hope they don't do a u-turn there!
