The Silent Goodbye

  1 4 Days With My Love Chapter 4: The Silent Goodbye Michael stood at the window of his office, watching the city lights. He had made a decision. He was going to ask Clara to marry him. He couldn’t imagine his mornings without her smile or his evenings without her wit. He wanted her to stay in Beijing forever, to build a life where the distance was finally zero. He was already planning a surprise proposal for their final day together, a night that would change everything. 💍✨ But first, he had to integrate her into his world.

Hello, my dearest Story Time readers from around the world! I am happy to write to you again about another one of my adventures. But just to make sure you don't miss any of the awesome stories that I will be sharing with you guys on my blog make sure you subscribe when you see that U.F.O. pop up on your screen. I look forward to welcoming new members of the Story Time tribe. While I was visiting the Dominican Republic with other Youth delegates we went to el monument a las heroes de la Restauración.  This tourist attraction in Santo Domingo is the highest building in the area. It has a beautiful park surrounding it but also a dark history. According to our guide, this monument was built by a dictator as he set his mark on their country. Typical dictator stuff, the guy has a bigger ego than I do lol. 😜😛 This dictator was known as  Rafael Leónidas Trujillo Molina.  He built El Monumento a la Paz de Trujillo in 1944. After his assassination in 1961, the monument was renamed Monumento a las heroes de la Restauración. Despite its dark history, it's still a beautiful place. I enjoyed the scenery, imagine how many people it took to build this massive historical site. I like getting a feel of a country their history. It can tell you so much about what created their present.  I hope you guys have fun exploring Santo Domingo during your travel. I made a short video about my visit to El Monumento a las heroes de la Restauración. Safe travels and until next time right here on Story Time.
