So, I’m driving into the city of Port-Au-Prince tomorrow, by myself, with a fella by the name of Enoch that I’ve never met yet, and he doesn’t speak any English… This is definitely a first for me, and I’m feeling a bit nervous (ok, quite a bit), for more than a few reasons which I will blog about tomorrow night (hopefully).
Alix, the really great manager of the Hotel we’re staying at says Enoch is one of the only guys that he trusts… hopefully that means I’ll be safe… In a foreign city, by myself and can barely speak any understandable Creole… … … …
(Psa 37:3) Trust in the LORD and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
(Psa 37:3) Mete konfyans ou nan Seyè a, fè sa ki byen! Pran peyi a fè kay ou, viv ak kè poze!
On another note, it was sobering tonight to realize that the price we pay for one dominos pizza (16 US) is a little more than half a months pay for the majority of people in Haiti – boy do we take a lot for granted!
And on that same note, I MISS my refrigerator with the built in ice and water. It’s been in the 90’s with 90% humidity and each bottle of water costs us 1.50$ and we’ve been drinking a very large amount each day (between the 5 of us).
Here are a few pictures…
