# 4 Beds In 4 Days

#### August 15th, 2006

Hey everyone. Well, the dream has finally been realized.

As the title suggests, I had a pretty hectic weekend. We newbie volunteers had our 3 month In Service Training in the Capital.

After 2 nights at the retreat center, I spent a 3rd night at the hostel in the capital hanging out with other volunteers and venting in English to people that are dealing with the same kinds of issues. It was a nice getaway and exactly what we (I) needed.

The next morning, 2 volunteers and I set off for Samana, the lush peninsula jutting from the north-northeast region of the island. We stopped in Sabana del Mar and took an hour long ferry across the Samana Bay.

We woke up Sunday, ate a quick breakfast, and headed to the tip of the Samana peninsula to visit one of the most beautiful coastlines in the country (and I'd guess it wouldn't rank too poorly on a world-wide list either). Pictures forthcoming.

Home sweet home.
