Weekend one!
Our first week culminated in a fun filled weekend. Students spent a day in Puerto Plata on the coast completing a scavenger hunt and swimming at the beach. We also got to visit a cacao farm and sample some chocolate. On Sunday students spent time with their host families and on a tour of the amazing street murals in Santiago. We are excited for another round of camps this week!
