Why I'm Going to Dominican Republic

| 10 Comments
So it's a week until I go to Dominican Republic. I said last week that I'd talk about why I'm excited to go and that's what I'm going to do.

I'm a little excited about the plane trip because my dad said it would be kind of neat. But I'm still a bit scared too.

I am excited about the hotel. I saw some pictures of it and it looks really nice. Normally Compassion wouldn't put people in such a nice hotel but they needed one that would have internet so I can write while I'm there.

I am excited to meet people who live in Dominican Republic and who are helped by Compassion International.

I am excited about the beaches and hope that I get some time to at least have a walk along the ocean. I've never seen an ocean before.

I am excited to buy some gifts that I can give to my friends back home in Canada.

I am excited to know that when we go to some of the places we are going to have security guards with us. That's exciting!

We leave next Sunday morning. I will post another blog sometime this week. See you then!

Hey Nick, Thanks for letting us know why you are excited to go to the Dominican Republic! I cant wait for your next post, are you able to write a post while you are on the plane(you could post it after you land)? I think that would be very cool! :-)

We will be praying for you as you leave,

I can't wait to hear all about your trip. I'm so excited for you to have this opportunity. Love you lots.

Hey Nick, great to read about why you're going to the Dominican. Sounds like a lot of fun. You have nothing to worry about in regards to the plane ride, your dad is right, it's going to be a lot of fun.
Looking forward to seeing you when you get back.

hey "lil" challies, you have fun on your trip brother!

Hi Nicholas, I found your blog through your Dad's site and just wanted to tell you that my family and I will be praying for you. Especially my 6 year old son Aidan and I. We are from CA and are excited to hear what you think of seeing the ocean for the first time!

God bless,
The Kurth Family

Never seen an ocean? Wow, it's a very special treat. Can't wait to see what you post!

It will be exciting indeed!
