Bon Bagay

Jeremiah and I went in to Cap Hatien today with one of the long term volunteers, Arlin. It was such an adventure but a bit scary too. We tried with all our might to fit in with the locals, but sorry to say it is just not possible. We definately are "blans". You can't get everything in one place here, so we went to several grocery stores, a market, a pharmacy, a hardware store, a Coca cola place, and a place to buy cell phone cards. We saw Haiti in a whole new light! I felt relatively safe walking around. The traffic and road through town was so different than we are used to. I have a lot of pictures to post...it's a good thing (bon bagay)!

Sounds like an adventure. Is Elijah feeling any better? Mom

Kim,
So glad you made it safely and are able to spend time with sweet Elijah. I hope he's feeling better! Reggie has the chicken pox too! Poor babies! If you get a chance, give Reggie some loving for me! Enjoy the rest of your trip. Praying for a safe return and that you'll be heading back to Haiti VERY SOON!!
In Him,
Carlyn
