Day Two!

Day two down! We had an amazing day, waking up to a delicious breakfast of potatoes and of course papaya! Then we set out to drive the top of Petionville to get an overlook of the city and get a little background on the location. Unfortunately a tree had fallen on one of the two roads that lead to the top and after waiting in traffic for about half an hour we decided to do a driving tour instead. It was really eye opening to see the destruction that remains years after the earthquake, especially in the main Cathedral of Petionville which is really no more than two seperate walls. Then it was time to come back and set up for the engagement party of Tamera and Raoul! We we're incredibly lucky to witness the ceremony and get a glimpse into Haitian life. We ate delicious potatoes, meat filled pasteries, meat pasta, and of course cake! We even tried to learn a few moves from Daniel(Rea's son) and Bissy(Rea's nephew), but it was a lot harder than they make it look! (Except for Kelly, who killed it on the dance floor immediately) We are looking forward to the adventures tomorrow will bring, and with very stuffed bellies get a good night sleep!
