Travel Day

Flying due South, the left side of the plane had a view of the Atlantic and the right side a view of terra firma.  We turned slightly East and lost the coast of Florida and soon headed over the Bahamas, Laura had a great view.

 Speaking of Laura, she is having an interesting trip, her name was spelled incorrectly on her ticket, just a small hazard when Garners and Gardners travel together. The result has been unnecessary scrutiny by the TSA and difficulty boarding at RDU and in Atlanta. Laura's boarding pass has been changed and printed more times than a college thesis.

The plane has what appears to be several mission trips on board. We met a group of 16 from Calvary Baptist in Charlotte. They told us they had a three hour bus ride to their destination.

We had a 4 mile ride in the back of a pick up truck.  Close proximity in the Haitian heat and one of our crew members fainted. (Name withheld to protect the blogger)

We are safely at our residence at Villa Mamika, and the rush to get on the wifi has begun.
