"Como te va Nene?!?"

That came from a nino that is with us right now in the center, he is really funny, he was baptised on saturday and his name is Alvieris. Sweet name no?

I can't remember the last time that we blogged, its been a long time. We have been to several beaches now. Samana was that last one we told you about. We have been to three others now on our days off. We went to a beach called Playa Caribe and we were tossed around like pumpkins that fall out of a big Dominican truck. Okay, that was a horrible analogy but the waves were like 8 feet tall and were super uneven. We would dive underneath one, come up for air quickly and have to dive again to save ourselves from being overcome with sea water! IT WAS AWESOME!! Then we went to another beach, much more tranquilo called Juan Dolio and I, Tyler, got SO BURNED!! (Lindon is now super tan) I didn't put on sunscreen and oh did I look like shrimp for the next week. Then a few days later we went to the beach the entire day with some friends of ours, the Rappley's. He is in charge of CES for the whole Caribbean and knows Lindon's Dad so they have been kind enough to take us to several places here on the island. We went to Bahaibe, probably the most gorgeous beach I have ever been to in my entire life. You know those wallpapers that come on your computer already there with the beach, the palm trees, blue water, sun, white sand...Eric and I can officially say..."Yeah, I've been there!" :) It was GREAT!

Then my family came last weekend and we went to a new beach and side of the island that we hadn't been to yet. It was a place called Cabarete, a gorgeous little surfing town on the northern part of the island. We stayed the weekend with my parents and went to the beach, also to 7 waterfalls where these huge Dominicans pull you up these waterfalls and then you either jump or slide off, it was RADICAL!!

We are going to the Camila Concert this weekend which is going to be incredible! We are going to try to be close enough to get the drumstick whenever the drummer throws it!

Oh yeah...the workshops! ;) We do work! A lot actually, we have taught 6 so far and are currently teaching 3 more right now. We love the people and they all are super ready and prepared for the class. Lindon and I have had a blast traveling and meeting tons of people!

We miss you guys!
