(pardon typos- this key board is really sticky and no spell check :) We woke up at 5:45 and had some coffee and bread on the beach and then we were off to run. It was market day so there was alot to see- goats handing upside down on the back of a truck, all sorts of fruits. The run was fun but long and I don't think I was used to the heat. Good time though. Jeff and I showered quickly and then went down to the coartyard for breakfast (included). We had omelets, bread, and grapefruit juice. They also brought a glass of creme for the coffee which Jeff took a gulp off and said " hmm this must be goat milk or something." When I told him it was the creme we had a good laugh. We hurried to check out and grabbed a motto to take us to the glas station we were meeting Teresa at (doctor that used to work at Cloud Forest Clinic with Jeff and now works in Christianville). She had to check on some of the orphan kids in the orphanage so we went there. We then met someone she had a talk to about supplies for a project (busy lady!). We then went to Teresas home and had lunch with her, her husband, and her two little kiddos. Her home was clean and orgaanized and quiet- it was nice to have a little break from the chaos outside. After a quick stop for lunch she drove us down to medishare right before Jeff's shift started at 3PM. I met the Rehab director and he showed me the Prosthetics Lab. It's run by all Haitians but he said they speak good english. I had some dinner that was provided and then went to the roof to watch the hussle and bussle in the streets and watch the injured get carried in. This is going to be an intense week.
