Iphone blogging from lobby
Wow what a day. I spent the whole day in the back of truck. Got some great photos. What was cool about it was that when you road in the bus you didn’t get the sights and sounds and yes the smell of Haiti. So we road for a couple if hours back there. We got the finger a couple of times and lots if strange looks. The first project we went to greated he with song and flowers. We were the first visitors so it was a bug deal. We shot some with the kids and they did great. Really great. We then went to another one that has been around for 32 years. They had a full working computer lab hooked to the Internet. They also have English classes. We talked last night about the trip I didn’t really say much. While in the back of the truck what we did talk about was how it seemed that everything stopped about 30 years ago. There are no shops people in constant motion and they really just exchanged money no real advancement. That was the sad part if the trip. We were in the capital and there wasn’t a single building over 3 stories. Most were empty. Larger homes were cut up into squatter camps. I felt helpless. Could see how day in and day out of this u may just give up and go with the current. The shining light were those compassion projects. In the coming weeks i will be highlighting certain children and let’s see if we van get them sponsored
Peace

Ok wow what a day. We left at around 8 for the project. This one was I a school. I spent most of my time trying to get a bunch of kids to speak creole or English. Both times I did an ok job. We shot video around there and i took some pictures. I web in and out of classrooms trying to make something happened. From there we went to a home that was washed away a mother told a story about how she tried to hold onto her child but could not. She lost that child. We though saw her other son and we met her husband. Ok now to leave u with a picture. The men in the red shirts are ldp students. Leadership development program students. They has gone through the sponsorship program and are now being trained to lead this country. If you wonder what a hero looks like look below.
