After arriving back in Seattle, by some strange twist of fate, we entered a Wal-Mart. Whoa! What a far cry from the little stores, Colmados, we found in the bateys or other villages around Barahona. Colmados, pictured above, come in all shapes and sizes. You could find various package items; crackers, snack items, fruit, some vegetables, etc.
I must admit, we were a little overwhelmed in Wal-Mart. Still adjusting to life in America and on occasion I'm fighting a judgmental spirit that rises up inside me.
