Every photo tells a story

Cathedral of Our Lady of Assumption
still lying in ruins.

I decided to try something different in this post.  Rather than use a lot of words to tell about our recent mission trip to Port au Prince, I will let these photos speak for themselves, with minimal captioning.  Ok, I admit it's real hard for me not to write 3 paragraphs about each one. 

These photos represent the highlights of the trip.  I hope you enjoy them.  Sorry for the wide spaces between the photos.  You get what you pay for with a free blog service.   ;)

Self explanatory parking spot.

Which one are you?!

Tent city with solar panels.  Seems
like an odd contrast.

Selling brooms.

Veterinary clinic.  I had no idea
these existed in Haiti.

Chickens in church.  And yes,
the rooster crowed during services.

What it's all about - helping
one another.

The face of desperation.

Driving through pools of sewage.

The gift of "new" shoes. 
This man kept admiring them.

No matter where they live,
boys will be boys.  They love
popping bubble wrap!

Arguing over who forgot to
fill the water tanks for us.  We had
no water for toilets or showers that night.

The next day, someone
forgot to turn OFF the water!

Our house.  Yes, that speck in
the middle...

The house.  2 bathrooms for 22
people.  We made it work.



I. Want. This. Puppy!!

Sunsets were gorgeous.

Need to purchase a last minute souvenir
before flying out of Haiti?  This is it. 
The one and only shop in the airport.
