Well, believe it or not but we are finally here! We had long wait at Halifax but finally got out and in to Montreal in time to get a good nights sleep at theTravelodge. Had a great flight down and a wonderful trip in to Deschappelles. We had 2 trucks and 5 men and 2 women to greet us and load and pack all our luggage in with the stuff they had bought earlier. Karen was inside the airport and waiting for us. We headed out with all our 12 bags and box and had about 15 Haitians trying to help us but we already had 5 men of our own plus Dickie and Trueman...we made quite a good procession across the street to the trucks!
Cecile was there to meet us too, that was a pleasant surprise! She and I and Timothy drove in the truck (Tap Tap) with Daniel and Patrick (Police) and Baniga in the back with most of our luggage. Dickie, Gail and Trueman drove in the Hats truck with Karen and Luckner and the rest of our luggage and many boxes of stuff they bought in Port Au Prince while waiting for us. We made a great sight driving like maniacs (as everyone else on the road drove that way). Only God could have gotten us here safely and that He did with us all relaxed and enjoying the trip!
The kids were all waiting to greet us as we came through the gates and we got lots of hugs and kisses and warm loving greetings!
Trueman set up a new printer in Karen's office tonight and we are now running off test papers for the school for tomorrow. Trueman and Gail have gone to bed and I am typing this and watching and feeding papers to the copier.
I will get Gail or Trueman to write their thoughts tomorrow!

And thanks again for taking the care package to Ronel for me!
So happy to get your news this a.m. and hear you arrived safely. We have had freezing rain through the night and this a.m. Most schools closed today - ours opens at 10 a.m. What is the temperature there today - have you warmed up yet, Dickie? :-) Love to all - Bruce and Sheila
