Day 1

As we wait patiently to board our flight from Fort Lauderdale to Cap Haitien, where we will be based for the next two days, the excitement is building. We know that all sense of time and flow will change from the moment our flight lands, and we are all ready for the adventure ahead.Sixteen intrepid travelers with 32 bags, although at this point more than 1/2 the bags - supplies for Chermaitre - are on another flight. The amount of luggage is, well, a lot, and for those of us who have been to Haiti before, we can just picture how it will make its way to its final destination - on backs and on heads! For now, every bag has been weighed. Every person has been weighed. Our creole is already being called into use. Boarding call. More from the Cap.VHP ale Ayiti.
