By the time you read this, I'll be on my way to the DR.
No, I'm not sick...at least, not any sicker than the thousands (millions?) of other unfortunate souls sniffling and sneezing their way through allergy season.
"DR" is the CI nickname for the Dominican Republic. And my Children International colleagues and I are getting ready to spend what promises to be an incredible week visiting our projects there.
The last time I was in the Dominican Republic, I caught the tail end of a tropical storm. That was an experience...
This time, however, we expect the weather to be more cooperative. So Andrea, Scott, Garrett, David and I will join the local CI staff for five intensive days of driving, interviewing, photographing and -- best of all -- meeting some of the great kids that make up our child sponsorship program in the Dominican Republic.
That's one of the great things about working with an international children's charity. Helping children in poverty can be an adventure!
I've been to the Dominican Republic several times. One of the places we'll be visiting is a community built right along the river. The locals say there are crocodiles in the river...but don't tell Garrett. This is his first time to go, and we don't want him to be nervous.
Look for us to blog from the field. And if you're on twitter.com, look for users named "andiwaters," "scotterman" and "CIContentGuy." If we get into any interesting situations, we'll try to let you know right away. See you soon!
