One night in Port....and back to the DR

We spent one night back in Port-au-Prince before heading back to the Dominican Republic for our last four weeks of outreach. The base moved out of the Children's Home and into a church where some of the Mission Adventures teams had stayed. It was 'very' different! BUT it was amazing to see our friends again! Emily Rice and I were invited out for a 'going away' evening with some of the staff. We all shared what was next for each of us and some of our fondest memories of Haiti. It was a super nice night out with friends and good food to boot! It was also sad saying goodbye to everyone.

The next morning we went over to Peterson's house (the base director) and waited for our transportation. A few of us girls went to a local store to buy food for our journey! When our transportation arrived we were super excited, it was a luxury little bus with air condition and enough space that we were not on top of each other, we actually got to spread out a bit. The bad part was, I was quite nauseas most of the way but I managed to not get sick.

Our border crossing was NOTHING like going to Haiti. It wasn't a market day and things were so vastly different, we cruised right through.
