We landed at 10:45pm and got our luggage. Which was interesting but it was not what I had been told it would be. People were really civil. I am very thankful for a smooth trip to Jacmel. There was no drama or delays. We did get rained on, and we were in the back of a truck but it worked out fine.
Interesting things of the day:
Port au Prince is more than a mess, is it a diaster zone still. There is garbage everywhere, there is burning garbage everywhere, there are fallen houses that crumbled into the streets. The streets are filled with people and it is very hard driving. I am assuming that it is this way in most third world countries. It made for an exciting adventure to Jacmel. While I was sitting in the back of the truck all I could think was that I wanted to do this forever. I wanted to travel the world and help people.
My mind changed when we got to where we were going. It was not the people I was just really tired and needed to go to sleep.
More Facts:
Sick looking cows; mountains are beautiful but deforested; people are nice; I really need to learn the language of the people. I feel stupid when it comes to that.
Lastly, I want a goat as a pet!!!
