Vacations!!

We are on vacation (15 days off) of course we wont be here the whole 15 work days, we'll spend our free time between Los Cacaos and the city (can you tell we are attached to the place).
Our year working there is coming to an end, but we decided to stay for a couple of more month to finish the health project in the community, that will make it easier for future doctors that come and hopefully doctors will keep coming. Los Cacaos is 2 hours away from the big hospital so having doctors right there is really important!!
Yesterday we loaded our car with boxes of milk and meds left from the medical operative we had and went up in the mountain to give it to the people that were unable to come to the operative. We went as far as the vehicule allowed us and then I started going house through house, people were SO happy to recieve this things :)
Today we are back in the city and I had Yaroa for dinner (then I ask myself why I dont loose the weight!). Yaroa is a dump dish originated in the north of DR :) made of either french fries or yellow plantain, your choice of meats, special sauce, mayonaise, ketchup and melted cheese, it is ohhh so YUMMY!The picture does no justice to this delish Dominican dish :) If you ever visit me I will buy you one myself and you will thank me forever ;)
