What a day we have had! We started out with plans to photograph students at 2 different schools. At LaHatte, is was even hotter than usual, but we feel it was worth it for time with some of our favorite kiddos there! On the way back out, driving through what is usually a dry riverbed, our big red truck got stuck in the mud left from last night's rain. We're grateful our American & Haitian guys were able to use sticks & knives to fill in the muddy ruts with dry dirt then push the truck free.
Because the truck had no cover and the sun was so hot, some of our team were feeling overheated. When the truck then broke down on the highway back to the mission center, we were grateful for a random concrete wall that gave us shade while we waited on the side of the road for Pastor Herve to pick us up with another truck.
We decided to skip our second school and came back to the center for cold sodas and naps instead! We've all felt better since supper, and are now watching another storm move in over the ocean. The cool air blowing through the cabana is a huge relief!
Tomorrow will be our last day here, and it will be a busy one! Then we're leaving the mission center before the sun rises Saturday morning, and are excited to be heading back to our loved ones in the USA! We'll have lots of pictures to show and stories to tell... See you soon!
