I'm in a Love HAITI Relationship

Hey everyone! I am so excited today to share about my Haiti trip for this weeks
Thursday Throwback!
In December 2007 I was beyond blessed to travel to Haiti to stay at an orphanage for a week in the capital, Port Au Prince. 

To get there, a few friends and I, raised support by selling these totally awesome shirts that said,
 I'm in a Love Haiti Relationship. Clever right?
God faithfully provided all we needed to get there and as soon as we finished finals, were on our way to Haiti. 

We were a little held up in Miami because our plane had multiple problems. We got to experience some true Haitian flare before landing, while on the turn pike, waiting to get off the plane to spend the night on the airport carpet, though. Haitians were screaming and shouting at the flight attendants and at each other because the plane was unable to take off. Everyone was angry and not afraid to show it. The pilot had to come out and threaten to call the police on them. It was intense. 
Needless to say, us 5 white girls were questioning what we had got into by going to Haiti.

All our doubts were put to rest when we landed in Haiti late the next day. 

It's a beautiful country with even more beautiful people. 
I fell in love with their dark skin and beautiful, white smiles.
