Our 6-week stay in Dominica started in this small town in the north east of the island
Finding donated accommodation is often our biggest challenge: this Lithuanian couple from the CouchSurfing network, kindly accommodated us for 10 days while we chased government offices for official permission to conduct our drug-awareness programs in all the schools & colleges

The school knew ahead of time that we were coming & they were supposed to organise a TV & DVD player for our program. However, they didn't supply either of them so we were on the spot to explain everything 'manually' with as much enthusiasm as possible!
This school in Grand Bay has the worst reputation on the island for drug abuse & rowdy behavior! When we told people we'd done a program there, the universal reaction was, 'You went THERE???'

Once permission was granted to conduct our programs, we were pretty busy going from school to school. Seen here with us is Malcolm from the Drug Abuse Prevention Unit--part of the Ministry of Health. Malcolm was a great help & opened many doors for us!

happy children hold up some of the books!
American Samoa is accessible by plane & ship; we took the ship from nearby Western Samoa—an overnight journey of about 12 hours.
