Hey, the Internet is back up! Today we went to the baptist mission and it was way up on the mountain, which was amazing. We went up there to eat lunch and from there we went to New Hope Orphanage. That was so cool. It was up a dirt road, way at the top of the mountain, overlooking the whole island and you could see the ocean. We were almost at the clouds. On the way, we saw a lot of shanty towns but at the same time beautiful countryside. It was a whole different Haiti. When we got to the O the kids all sang us a song about how happy they were that we were there.The kids were great and a little older than the ones at 3 Angels Orphanage. Katie and Shannon are sick, in fact Katie didn't go today But she is doing better now. Coming home, it was dark and it looked like a few people were nervous cuz it seemed like the whole city was out and looking at us, but I was not at all. Because there was no electricity ,all the shops had candles for lights! Ok, got to go. Can't believe tomorrow is our last day!!
