We made it!

Our flights were a little delayed but went very smoothly! Here we are arriving at the Port-au-Prince airport. Amelia insisted on walking down the stairs herself with no help!

 Getting through customs was not difficult. Getting all of our bags without being trampled was the real challenge!

 We were surprised to find a Volvo station wagon waiting for us. We had expected a few of the boys Carl is friends with as well as a couple vehicles to fit all of our things. We later found out that they were there waiting for us for 3 hours. Yesterday. Oh well! 9 bags, 8 carry-ons, and 6 people, no problem! Somehow we all made it in (and on) the car!

 This hotel is very nice and also close to where we will be. The kids cooled off in the pool and we ate dinner under the overhang. They made us Haitian lasagna, which is a tan color and has peppers and a mild sauce layered between the noodles! Yum! Trenton got attacked by a flying ant and his arms are covered in bites, poor guy. The power finally came on and we are able to get on the internet while a thunder storm rolls by above us.

On the agenda for tomorrow: head to Good Rest to meet everyone. In order to do this we will be getting a local transportation lesson! How exactly does a family of five successfully hail and ride in a Tap-Tap? We shall see! We also want to move into our rental on the 1st, but heard that they have now dug up the well. We will stop by there tomorrow, hopefully it will be close to move in ready *fingers crossed*. We also need to find a water pump and tank, find a way to attach propane to the camping stove we brought, and I would really like to find out the secret of making fresh passion fruit juice because the sample I had today was AMAZING!

Hugs and blessings to everyone from Haiti!
