Wedding at the Casa








We had a wedding here today and it was 95 plus degrees. Whew! Folks started arriving at 9 a.m. and waited for the wedding to start...they waited and waited. It started at 1 p.m. Welcome to the Dominican...although that is a longer than usual wait. The picture above don't really capture very well one of the cool parts of the wedding...that being the courtship dancing some of the young people did before the ceremony began. There were two groups and performed beautifully. We really enjoyed them. The rest of the wedding was much like a wedding in the U.S. It is 3:30 pm now and we are hoping to get a taste of the cake.

For last years team, remember the wading pools? They were filled with water for the wedding and the little kids have taken their clothes off and are in them right now. (-; It is so hot...many people have gone in the pool with shorts and t-shirts on just to cool off.
