We are here! 3:30am
Thursday morning came quick for most of us!
Many were up till 12 or later packing after having worked all day the
day before. But some how the excitement of
this trip made that hour easier!
We arrived at the airport, checked in and rode a puddle
jumper (my words) to Maimi. We made the
connection in Maimi and landed in Haiti around noon. The airport has changed and ran very smoothly
and we had our inside connection that had already rounded up the bags. Kyle and Tompy (a friend from last year) met
us outside and loaded us up in the vans.
Our first stop was La Patist. This is the deaf camp run by the Red Cross in
Port-a-Prince. The Red Cross is pulling
our and everyone has till Jan 1 to find other housing. This is the reason for the new land in
Leveque.
As soon as we pulled up the kids saw the bus and knew that
this means grownup to play with! We had
a wonderful introduction to the deaf leaders and heard their stories and then
played soccer with the kids.
OR
So we tried! We are
going to get smoked in the Soccer game on Tuesday.
Hopefully pictures tell the story!!
Kristin, Tracey and Laney,
