Another great day in CLS. Fr. B had to go to Hinche to the market so we walked thru town to find the clearing for the new airstrip, which we found. On the way we ran into the assistant mayor and he talked to us about 3 projects they are working on: 14 streetlights in the town, each powered by a solar panel.One is located right across from the church ;river recovery project to prevent flooding; paved road to Hinche and graded roads to a couple chapels.

We then approached the Locian River from a ridge high above the valley.Spectacular scenery with many people bathing, washing clothes,moving  supplies on burrows and their heads, swimming–generally appearing to be enjoying themselves– especially watching us 3 rookies hopping from rock to rock trying to avoid getting soaked ,which we did. As usual we had great guidance from Junior St. Vil. It was a great aerobic hike,which we all need because the food has been good and plentiful. On the way back we stumbled by the Prestige Mini-Bar & of course had to help out the local economy.

Had a great lunch, met Noseline a nursing student in PAP- sponsored by Jeri .

Now awaiting  dinner!!!!!
