Hello! This is Christina (Tina) and Edith, the líderes del día for global business/work like a local day. Yesterday, Friday the 24th we went to Vivero de Cafe, a coffee plantation to experience working like a local. We were divided into 2 groups, one group picked out the weeds from the coffee plant while the other group emptied bags of dirt to be used later on. Some of us gained back/leg pain while others got bit by ants. But don’t worry we are fine now ? Then, we also went to a coffee factory, Cafe Monte Alto, tried coffee, and bought coffee. Let us tell y’all the coffee was SO GOOD. After visiting Cafe Monte Alto, we got free time in town! The group got handmade ice cream and roamed around town, getting some shopping done. What a fun day!
p.s Miss you family and friends. And Happy Late Birthday Mirna! (Tina)
Los extraño a todos, can’t wait to see you all Wednesday! ( Edith)

Wow, seems like you all had a hard working day. Hope you all weren’t too sore the next day. The fresh grown coffee must be delicious, I know Julia is probably missing her Matcha latte’s or maybe not. All I know is we miss her a lot and we are super excited to see your posts, so please keep blogging. We’re so excited for all of you and happy for all the wonderful experiences you’re all having.
Julia sending you big hugs from all the family, uncles aunts and cousins. (Toto, Daniel, and Emma played with Jessica on Father’s day but were really missing you and your patience with them)
Mom, Dad and Jessica send you the biggest hug, Love you!!!

Thank you for the blog post. I enjoy reading your adventure in the DR. Working like a local sounds like an interesting experience.
Christina F, how are you doing? Miss you much! Looking forward to your return on Wednesday. BTW, Jo Jo got his Invisalign yesterday. He woke me up at 4am this morning to give me pain med because the pain woke him up. I hope he will do better tonight.
Lots of hugs and love!

Hola Julita,
Nos da gusto ver tus fotos y ver que te estas divirtiendo. Que rico se ve el cafe, me recuerda cuando estabas chiquita y te dabamos cafe sin decirle a tus papas. Te queremos mucho.
