A Step Toward Home

The journey home began at 5:00 am today. The public ferry was the means of transportation to the mainland. The hour and a half trip across the water put us at the dock on the mainland about 7:30. It was 8:50 by the time we arrived in the greater Port-au-Prince area and 9:30 by the time we arrived at Dan & Joy's house.

After some rest and lunch, we traveled with Dan as he visited some of the sites where construction is underway. In addition to seeing Port-au-Prince from different elevations, we also experienced an extremely wide variety of road surfaces (most of them requiring slow, cautious travel) and traffic congestion.

Tomorrow we plan to work on various maintenance chores around the house.
