Arrived

We got up about 3:30 Monday morning to get ready to go to airport.  We needed to get to aiport by 5:50 to check in.  Our plane left at 7:20.  We had a long day going through the Charlotte and Miami airports before arriving in Port-Au-Prince.  We got through customs and got our luggage without any problems.  Praise the Lord!  Dave Heady picked us up from the airport and we took the ride to the Global compound.  That was very interesting.  They don't have traffic lights and lines on the roads like we do in the States, but we made it safely to the compound.  they had dinner ready when we got there and we got to meet and talk with the other missionaries on the compound.  Then it was bed time.  I don't remember ever getting in bed before 8pm.  But just being here was a relief and we slept so good.  Although the sun started coming up at 5:15.  We got an early start getting settled in the apartment we are going to be staying in.  I guess we will have to get ajusted to going to bed earlier and getting up earlier.  It's kind of hard getting wifi, I have to leave the apartment and get closer to one of the houses, but I will keep updating often.  Thanks again for all the continued prayer.
