Our flights went well. A several hour delay at the airport (Port Au Prince) waiting for our ride gave us opportunity to make friends with a few Haitians who tried to teach us Creole. Most students here are able to speak several languages. Humbling experience for us who are trying to learn a new one in our old age.Ask Liane about her ride in the cargo hold; don't worry, Lynn, in the end she did get a window seat. We have her busy today sorting out the kitchen pantry, and she has already provided two wonderful meals for us.
As for the rest of us, John, Steve and Darren are on the way to the airport to pick up team B. They have been unpacking tools and even have fixed a stuck door on Rachel's Inn. Now Kathy can finally get in to her room without asking for help. Greg help us get our internet connected and showed us how to download these pictures. Russ has been getting the water purification system running. Thanks Russ! Mark has already done some electrical work, pest control and is now setting up our "Lowe's" in Rachel's Inn. Pam has encounter all kinds of Haitian wildlife such as bats, lizards, chickens and (in her ROOM) a creature slightly bigger than a mouse. :) I (Heather) had a sweet opportunity to sing this morning at our service in St. Mark. What a blessing! They knew the words to "It Is Well" and joined in.
Check back in tomorrow. I am sure team B will have more news of their travels to share.
