One thing I've left out of the blog is the haitian traffic and roads...in a word, chaos! NYC cabbies have nothing on these guys! The roads are rock and either steep or full of huge holes or now rubble to drive around. There are no traffic laws really...someone might be headed straight at you driving on the wrong side of the road. There's a lot of passing, swerving, and honking and a lot of traffic jams as sometimes, people just leave their cars in the middle of the road to do something! Horrible back ups. Worst was yesterday with keith and we sat still for 30 mins due to some moron changing his tire in the middle of the road...and was horizontal to traffic and it was a dump truck! We've literally played chicken with a semi and when keith says "that was close" you can bet your life it was! He's been here 25 yrs so he's part haitian by now! Kelly is quite aggressive too and holds her own. Adventure!
