This weekend the Liberal Arts students, me, and Cricket are going to Samaná, a town in the east on the Samaná peninsula. We'll be there the whole weekend, so hopefully on Monday I will have plenty of pictures and stories to make a blog post...
Anyway, as far as anyone reading this is concerned, I'm still in Constanza. So, day two:
A delicious buffet breakfast (of course) before we set off for the Aguas Blancas waterfall nearly an hour-and-a-half away. We drove up bumpy, bumpy roads in "safari" style, meaning in seats in the bed of a pick-up. It's hard to explain exactly...this is where taking more pictures probably would've come in handy. Here's a view from said safari truck though:
What an ugly country. (Kidding!)
I did take pictures of the waterfall that we got to though...
You'll notice some people swimming in the pool beneath the waterfall in this one. There's a reason I wasn't - it was freezing. Literally, it was below 32 degrees.

Me, Sarah, and Andrea.
We stayed at the waterfall for about an hour, had some ham&cheese sandwiches and juice boxes, felt like we were in second grade, it was awesome.
That was pretty much the highlight of that day...had lunch back at the hotel, took a nap in the afternoon, BBQ-style dinner...The next day we were all super tired but me and pretty much all of the other girls decided to go into the actual town of Constanza which was pretty uneventful and *ahem* boring. It really is just a town in the middle of nowhere - what's exciting there is all the outdoorsy activities, not the little town.
And now I'll be taking a quick homework break (which I actually have today, crazy, I know) and then I'll be back to write another post...
