After a long day, of travel on Friday, the northern and southern components of our team came together this morning in Port au Prince. The Minnesotans, Iowans, and South Dakotans spent Friday night in Miami; while the Georgians stayed in Port au Prince at a new hotel, the Palm Inn Hotel. It was quite comfortable and had fabulous food, so I expect we will stay there again.
Our travel out to Leogane was uneventful. After getting our room assignments, we enjoyed a delicious spaghetti, salad, and mango lunch while David Paige, the guesthouse manager, provided a brief orientation for us. Then, we commenced our work, which is continuing tonight. Dianne, Cynthia, and Jane are hard at work labeling meds in this picture.
It is always so wonderful to see the same guesthouse staff each trip and to renew our friendships. Both Evens, our nurse, and Emmanuel, our dentist, stopped by for a short visit today, and to start planning for the clinics. Others will be joining us tomorrow. Now, back to work!
