Day 6

Today we put on our bright green shirts again and headed out to Cite Soleil for another water truck day. We made two stops in neighborhoods and at each we emptied our truck. Like before, we played with the kids, held babies, filled the buckets, and assisted in delivering them back to homes. After the second stop, we drove out to the end of the neighborhood where there was a large dock with kids swimming and people fishing. We gathered some younger kids around and Sam lead us all in a fun Haitian 'Simon Says' game. After returning and cleaning up a bit, we left for Grace Village to eat a wonderful pizza dinner at the Fleuri restaurant. On our ride back from the meal we watched from the Tap-tap as kids came out to play and collect water in a short-lived rain shower (that cooled us off as well). To end the day, we went to the nearby hotel for salsa dancing. Some highlights for us were teaching some of the Haitian dancers the "Cotton Eye Joe" line dance and riding home in the cool night air in the back of the pickup truck with the view of the hillside in front of us.
