Second Day Back- An Exciting Bus Ride
Well, I finally made it back to Haiti the other day. Today, we took the Haitian bus from Port-au-Prince to Cap-Haitien. This was a six hour, dusty, crowded bus ride over all the beautiful Haitian terrain. Along the way, you always get to see all the extremes of the country from some of the tent cities and mountain home to the ocean view. Stopping twice for a flat tire and then for the bus catchig fire underneath, we had a more than ordinary trip. We also had Vanessa's (one of Roland's sisters) mother with us as she moved a bed and some other furniture from Port-au-Prince where she used to live to Cap-Hatien where she is living in the same house we are staying in. All of her belongs were on the top of the bus. We were able to catch up on a little sleep and get reaquaitned, so that was nice. Since we've been in Cap [Haitien]for the past few hours, we've been able to go and visit a few of the people we are wanting to work with. We literally just left Tabitha's house and talked with her and Jack on their plans for the new land and orphanage to see where they stood. Hopefully, I'll be able to post a couple pictures soon too!
