After an early-morning breakfast at the same restaurant, we walked to Baraguana. Once we arrived, we were assigned into groups and were told to interview the villagers to ask about what they knew about the water quality and their water source(s) for uses such as drinking, washing, and cooking. One of the members of our group placed stickers on the kids after interviewing the adults.



Afterwards we were free to do what we wanted in the village. Some of the children stuck with us, with one of the kids in particular spending a lot of time with me, playing some soccer, catch, and coloring. I thought it was really tiring but it was also a lot of fun to see such happiness in this kid during the time that we spent together.

After going to the hotel and then the restaurant for lunch, we first stopped by a water system called INAPA (Instituto Nacional de Aguas Potables y Alcantarillados, literally “National Institute of Water and Sewage”). Then we went to the hotel owner’s farm, which held a lot of really amazing things, including crops such as plantains and really spicy peppers, a large gazebo, animals such as cats and chickens, and a house that had a really magnificent view.


Afterwards, we stopped by a park close to the hotel and relaxed there before going for dinner. While we were enjoying the weather, I got pineapple and orange ice cream from Bon. It tasted really good!

A few of us then went to a Catholic church that was close by to see how it looked like. We stayed for a short time before meeting up with the group for dinner.

After such a long day, we eventually went back to the hotel, in which we stayed up for a while to talk and enjoy our final night at Imbert before we were to head back the next day.
