Last Saturday Terry's parents flew into Puerto Plata and stayed for a week. Terry and I took the bus to the coast to meet them there and stayed at their resort for the night. It was so nice to see familiar faces again. Sunday afternoon we made the trek back to Jarabacoa because we had to work on Monday. Sunday we picked up our favourite chicken from the chicken stand that is just a tarp over the sidewalk. Monday we went to work and left mom and dad a key, some pesos and a little bit of water and they were good for the day although they never did venture out. They did enjoy a restless night however of barking dogs and crowing roosters. Terry and I slept like overworked missionaries.
Tuesday was a tiring day of seeing Jarabacoa. We went to two wateralls (Salto Baiguite and Salto de Jimenoa), then after lunch went to show them the school and campus. The evening was spent at home barbequeing with our new burner (thanks dad) and neighbours popping in to say Hi. Wednesday was back out to the coast to spend the rest of the week relaxing at the resort. The best part about it all was that when we were there on Saturday, Terry and I bought a day pass but the bracelette they gave us looked the same as Terry's parents. So, when we went back on Wednesday we just kept it on and enjoyed another three days of all inclusive (some might call this lying but we'd like to think it's their mistake for not having different coloured bracelettes). The rest of the week was spent shopping, haggling over prices and trying not to stare at naked German women or men with speedos pulled up a little too high. Quote from Terry while at the beach, "are tan lines really that bad to have?"


Terry, that's gross, put some clothes on!



We had to be back at work for Saturday so we left Friday afternoon and came home to pouring rain for the entire next day. It was great to see Terry's parents and to get a much needed break. We're now planning for Charla and Tyler's visit in just two weeks (don't forget your speedos).
