Safe Arrival

This is my 3rd attempt to write this entry. Either the internet or the hydro is not working:)
Well, my love affair with Haiti has begun. I think I will love it here. My flights were sadly uneventful and everything went as smoothly as possible. I didn't even receive one marriage proprosal at the airport:)
My arrival at Coram Deo was met by much enthusiasm. I had at least 7 wonderful helpers help me unpack my suitcases and decide where to put my stuff. My room is huge and beautiful. Karen has worked very hard preparing for my coming. My computer is here but it is not yet on the internet.
I won't write too much because I'm afraid the internet will stop working again. I will hopefully write more this weekend.

Very happy to hear that you had a safe and welcoming arrival and can't wait to hear about your exciting adventures in Haiti! Question: if you took 140 lbs of luggage with you, how much of it was peanut butter?

Wishing you well, Juanita

Hi Kimbit,

I'm glad you made it safely, and I'm glad you feel so comfortable already. It sounds like its going to be challenging to keep us up-to-date with your blog but I hope you can update as regularly as possible because I want to hear all about it.

We are thinking about you lots and praying for you,
Love Amy (& Shawn)
