Les Cayes

Today we went on an adventure! Josh, a guy from Texas who is working at the orphanage with us met a nun on his plane to Haiti. She invited us to come to Les Cayes to see where she works in a school. We certainly experienced Haitian time today. We understood we were to be picked up at 8am but really the driver left his city at 8am. As Americans clearly we have zero patience so we almost gave up waiting for our ride around 1:30pm. I'm so happy we did not! When our driver came & we headed to Les Cayes we saw why it took him sooo long to get to us...there was a major traffic jam. Of course we took a shortcut through a river :) Then there were men blocking the way that wanted people to pay to get through. By the grace of God we were right next to the police & they let us pass with no pay & no harm. We did not arrive in Les Cayes till about 7pm. The drive was BEAUTIFUL! We are staying in a catholic convent in Les Cayes. It is soooo very beautiful. The nun sister Judith is the most wonderful woman I have ever met. I love EVERYTHING about her! She even sang "I will follow him wherever he may go there isnt an ocean to deep...." Like on sister act! Too cool. They fed us an incredible feast. I was bursting with joy so much that I wanted to break into song. Tomorrow we will see schools and learn about this area. We are all thrilled! Thats all for now we are all very sleepy after a long day of travel. Look up Les Cayes, Sud, Haiti to see where we are.
