Friday Morning in Haiti

At 6:30 this morning the generator was started and I wondered why. Went out to look and they were pumping water into the holding tank on the roof. Funny because as was showering earlier thought what if I get all soaped up and the tank runs out of water. May have been a close call. Few minutes later was looking out porch and they were washing the truck using a water hose. Now I know you think what's the big deal, but remember no plumbing like we are used to. I guess the generator allowed water to be pumped thru the hose. Quite a crowd gathered around to watch the "truck washing".

Update
After the Truck washing event I heard singing and drums beating. Went to investigate and school children were marching down the street carrying the Haitian flag and singing but I had no idea what was going on. When I got to the clinic there were more children in the street singing, beating their drums and carrying flags. I found out they were celebrating the battle of Ver Tiere. Aproximately two hundreed years ago the slaves in Cap Haitian took a stand for freedom against the colonists and began their fight for independence.
