Independence Day in the DR

Feb 27th-- Leonel and Cristopher (2 kids from the orphanage but also in our English 2 class) carry the DR flag in the morning parade.
Jose Luis and Jessica (also from the orphanage, and also in the English 2 class) carry the Orphanage Outreach flag. Followed by them were about 80 volunteers wearing their Orphanage Outreach shirts.
Rafael walked with his school in the parade, carrying a ribbon pyramid
We had an Independence Day dinner under the new pavilion with all of the volunteers and orphanage kids that night
