On this day our week began to slow down a bit. We had answered many of the questions that we had collected with time. Today we had UNICEF on our list. To our surprise we discovered a part of town that we hadn’t seen before this was called Parque Mirador; a long strip of land in the middle of town extending from east to west very close to the shore. We visited the facilities which very well kept and looked very much a U.S. building. It had high security, strong A.C. and without doubt very strong coffee as well. Our meeting went on for a while. After we finished we headed to Spices, a Mexican Restaurant, where we enjoyed D.R.’s version of Mexican food. I must admit it was very good.
Plaza Lama the big superstore was very close to Spices, so we walked there. We just went to buy chocolates to give away for the interviewees, but we ended up spending more than two hours buying gifts, CD’s and remembering old times watching Michael Jackson Thriller video, which seemed to have a wide audience. Many people stopped for more than 3 minutes in front of TVs section just to watch this well choreographed video. It wasn’t until we had checked out that we realized we were supposed to buy more chocolate than what we got, but the amount end it up being sufficient for the next day. At night we decided to cook at home, make spaghetti and enjoyed our Merengue CD’s just acquired from our much appreciated Plaza Lama\
