Day 6

Thursday, September 8
 
Thursday brought us back to our original build site from Monday. On our way out to the site, we would see lots of different animals (cows pictured below). And on site, we were often greeted by pigs, goats, dogs, and cats.
 
We spent the day assembling the walls of the home. It was a series of cement slabs, held together by metal frames.  We used our learning from the cement factory to be able to find the pieces the masons needed to assemble the walls. The walls all went up today!
 
 
After our day on site, we returned back to the hotel for our reflection meeting and then went out for Pizza and Baseball! The pizza was delicious (we weren't sure what to expect for Dominican pizza, but it was great!).  After pizza, we went and watched two men's league softball teams play a double-header of fast-paced, hard-hitting, quick base-running, exciting softball. Here we learned about the air high fives, which became a team (especially Hannlex) favorite.
