Hi everyone!
Today, we went to a Haitian church! We had to leave to go to church around 6:45 because church starts at 7:30. The whole sermon was in Creole, but they sang hymns in French and we had a book so we could follow along. There was lots of music, and they even had 2 guest choirs that came to sing from Port-au-Prince and they were really good. The whole service lasted about 2 and a half hours.
After lunch, we drove about 15 minutes to the shore to go to a beach. Missy's friends own a guesthouse on the beach, so we spent the afternoon there. We went on a small boat ride in a canoe-like boat (it was carved out of one tree). A guy named Rodney paddled us out, while me and two of my friends sat on the floor of the canoe. The water was really clear and pretty, and we were able to see the coral reef. There were tons of sea urchin (thought of you, Amma!). Take a look at some of the pictures!
