We recived approx. 3 tons of food from the argentinian contingent at the UN today. they bruoght it throught he neighborhood with 2 big trucks and an armored personnel carrier. They were very kind hearted and seemed to like hanging out with the children at the orphanage. Yesterday we distributed the remainder of the rice and beans we had purchased. It went well no serious problems. The Hatian people for the most part are calmer than we would be if we were in similar circumstances. After unloading the food we headed out to Gonaives, the city about 100 miles to the north that we have an ongoing work in. We came to check the condition of the hospitals in the area to see if they had been overrun by people injured in the earthquake. all hospitals in this area are in good shape. They reported that they initially had a lot of patients but now are back to normal. We will also be picking up mattreses and other supplies to bring down for the teams that will be arriving shortly. We will sit down to dinner with our freinds in the Pakistani army that are part of the UN force that has been here for a few years. We will head back to Port Au Prince tommorrow morning after we pick up some beans that we haven't been able to find in Port. thanks for everything.

  4. Thanks Chris. I can't take credit though. It was the work of those at the orphanage that paid off. Wish you were still here with us.
