Final post

Wednesday, June 10

I wanted to post some fun pictures. After our teaching at Clinic St. Jean, we had a beach and tour of Cap-Haitien day to celebrate the closing of all of the wonderful and hard work that had been done the last three weeks. Haiti is such a wonderful country, a piece of my heart will always be there, and I am counting down the days until I will be able to return.
 
These are some pictures of the mountain side from our drive to the beach


 The beach! White sand, palm trees and blue water, I felt like I was in the Caribbean...Wait a second, I was! There are a few resorts on the water for tourists and locals to enjoy

 Zanmi mwen! Lelene (left) and Pamela (right) are two friends from Robillard who joined us for our beach excursion. These two have hearts of gold! 

 A view on our way down of the Cathedral and the city of Cap-Haitian. 

 Houses on houses! These houses are stacked on top of one another all the way up the mountain. It's hard to imagine having to walk all the way to the top with groceries or clothes piled high on your head, but Haitians do it all the time.

 We made a pit stop to enjoy one last view of the beach and take a selfie! 


 Before we left on Thursday, the school children were gathering around to bid us farewell. I cried the whole way out of Robillard....and maybe a time or two on the way to the airport!



And we're off! 

The Lord bless you and keep you!
The Lord let his face shine upon you and be gracious to you!
The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace!
-Numbers 6, 24-26
