My Trip to the Dominican Republic
by Jodalisa - 3J

My mom, dad, little brother Jomar, and I went to the Dominican Republic for a Christmas and New Year's party. We stayed at a beautiful hotel named Hamaca Coral. Our plans were to initially stay at my uncle's house. Instead, we stayed at the hotel and watched the story of how Jesus Christ was born. On the beach was a setup of the reenactment of his birth. There were angels, the three kings, Mary and Joseph. They had shiny lights, a twinkling star, and a crib made out of leaves and tree branches. It was a heavenly sight. On New Year's Eve, we had a fancy dinner on the beach. There were two live bands that played salsa and meringue. We waited happily for New Year's Day to arrive.
