Haiti's beauty is not all under the rubble

Haiti is beautiful even in a season of disaster. Yes, we do have Sundays off in Haiti even though the need never sleeps. How could we pass up telling you about this past Sunday? Here is our proof. This Sunday we journeyed to a Kréyòl bohemia art meets French port city called Jacmel, (Jakmèl in Kréyòl). We had a spectacular ride as we drove up a steep and windy road (hoping to not turn too green) about a hour from our base in Grand Goâve. In this trip we crossed through some of the most beautiful spots we have seen thus far. When we arrived in Jacmel we ate at a posh Haitian hotel and hiked to a gorgeous waterfall area. We finished our day off with waterfall spelunking. It was the best day off we have had yet. Inspiring hope for this country too. Haiti's beauty is not all under the rubble.

Hey guys, glad it's not all misery and that you get away at some point to enjoy yourself some! Looks like some nice suny beaches over there, should attract visitors? Ronald
