Day 1

Day 1
What an amazing day!  I can't believe I am in Haiti! 
The morning started at 1:30am, and hasn't stopped yet!
In the shower today, I realized this is REAL, and will be my last warm shower for the next week.  But let me tell you, this whole experience has been surreal.  

I met my team at the airport at 3:45am this morning, went through security and our flight was actually at 6am (not 10am like I said to some of you- sorry).
We got here around 3pm today- but the airport experience was like no other! 
The guesthouse that we are staying at is very nice and comfortable- The ride from the airport back to the guesthouse was...another EXPERIENCE.  The house is only 1.5 miles away, but took ~20 minutes to get to.  We rode in a top truck...I'll post pictures later- I wasn't able to take in my surroundings because I was holding on...and there was a lot of luggage in the back with us :).
All and all, a great day- so thankful for this day! 
Tomorrow- Water Truck day- I can't wait!  I will be seeing and experiencing Haiti tomorrow!


Today's closing verse:  1 Chronicles 16:34
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.
