Just for Funzies....

It's hump day again in Haiti and I am sitting out yet another storm. Have been fighting with the Internet service trying to save my work. Thought I would share a few pictures with you since I do not have my story finished. Tomorrow we will be taking a field trip to Dessalines (about two hours away) to visit an Orphanage that has been around for around 40 years. In late May or early June, one of the counselors came to Bayonnais to visit a friend and stopped by on his way out. He heard there was a new orphanage in the area with an American and wanted to introduce himself and visit. His name is Jacquelin Jean (yes, I said, His) and he was raised in this orphanage from the age of four. He is now thirty and working as a teacher and counselor at the orphanage. A very nice and polite gentleman that spoke English very well. He invited me to come and visit their place so that is what we plan to do. Originally, it was going to be just Saint Victor and I, but the guys decided to include all the kids and also to take our bus out for the first time. It should be a very interesting trip. I will plan to take lots of pictures, of course. In the meantime, here are a few pictures for your viewing pleasure.

Our cook, Marie-Rose, getting tickled over having her picture taken. Ismalene being silly with her "goofy" face.

Carjina braiding the yarn hair on the Dallas Cowboy doll.

San Villea, our night Watchman. Just kidding, this was an hour before his shift.

Julius, our day Watchman, with two newborn goats. Only a few hours old and not able to walk yet.

A fun way to pass the time while the ground dries.

One of the many faces of our darling, Angeline.

I will be back on Friday, if the weather allows it, and will share our field trip adventure with you. Love and hugs to all. Thank you for tuning in.
