where is everybody?

Continues to be the question the guys have for Matt. Monday they drove twenty minutes from the airport to the campus, and didn't see one person (outside of a car). As you've seen in our pictures of Haiti, there are ALWAYS people EVERYWHERE, eating, sleeping, working and even hanging out in the road, so that must have been quite an eerie drive!

They made it to Jackson, and their luggage made it there eventually, too :) All four of them are having a great time, though Matt has become sick all over again and doing really poorly today. So far, the luggage carousel, "key cards" at the hotel and Target have been among the most interesting things.

Matt is also learning more about Haitian culture, just from being in America. Things are usually much less rushed here than they are in the States, and the guys have been struggling to understand why everything and everyone is moving so quickly! Matt took them to Logan's Steakhouse last night to give the four of them a chance to "un-overwhelm", and while the guys were not at all impressed with steak ("where is all the sauce? why is it in one big hunk? what do I put on it?"), they had a really good time.

The best part for all of them has been being at Wesley...they are all loving their classes, enjoying being IN the classroom and meeting the professors that have been teaching them for over a year now, and thriving with new insight and passions to bring Christ to Haiti!

Meanwhile, Lily and I are holding down the fort, missing Matt and SO thankful that my dad is coming on Sunday!
