Our day began with the usual 630am wake up call and breakfast with the
group. After our morning meal, we headed back to our rooms to pack our
belongings for our next stop. Our day planned till 1pm was to tour the city of
Cap Haitian with the staff members of the Sacred Heart Centre. The group was
split into 3 smaller groups with 3 staff workers guiding us.
The first group
visited the home of a staff member and walked through the incredibly energetic
food market. The second group had the pleasure of being shown around a local
hospital then accompanied through a fish market. The staff members also brought
all groups around square park. The third group toured the hospital and had time
to shop in a souvenir market. Everyone had the mutual feeling of respect for the
hard workers of the SHC(Sacred Heart Centre) and were very appreciative for them
to spend their day off accompanying us.
With the ending of our tour through Cap
Haitian we ate lunch together and said our goodbyes. A very heart felt goodbye
was given to our interpreter (Idia), who shared her story that touched everyone
in the group the day before. It was now time for the group to get on their
flight scheduled for 3pm, but was delayed till 630pm.
By the time the flight was
ready, everyone was so incredibly eager to get aboard. Together, we watched a
beautiful sunset from above and had an astonishing view of Haiti. The group then
landed back in Port-au-Prince, where they drove to their next place of stay, at
Walls guest house. To end the day, we enjoyed dinner together, then
reflection.
