Dia del Amor y la Amistad


Valentine's Day in the DR is celebrated similarly as in the states. The kids were allowed to wear normal clothes, rather than their uniforms, to school and most went wearing red. When I went into town, almost everyone I saw was wearing red, too. And it's common for kids to give eachother little candies (mints and Hall's cough drops, ha, ha) and Valentines cards. Even a shoeshine boy gave me a carmel. The picture above shows the cards I got from Yesica, Melisa, and Emelina.

I first visited your blog, but my antispyware said that he is infected with an unknown virus.
I deleted the virus through this AntiSpyWare.
The virus does not manifest itself but gradually destroys information on the computer.
