Tropical Storm Chantel



We have been getting text message warnings (in French...) about tropical storm Chantel for the last couple of days. And now that she's come and gone, we wish she would return ;) It really didn't rain nearly as much as we anticipated, and it has completely cooled down the city. I am even wearing jeans and a t-shirt (with sleeves!) today!

Yesterday all of our plans got cancelled due to the storm, so we decided to walk to the nearest market for some sweets- cookies, ice cream, soda... we went wild. No rain today, though it is still completely overcast, and totally bearable.


Now, I am back in our new favorite coffee shop in Petionville while Andrew grabs lunch with a friend. Tonight we have plans to meet up with our old friend, Brenna, who is visiting Port-au-Prince for two weeks to complete some school related work/research. Several people, actually, have contacted us about visiting for various reasons over the next few months, and I am looking forward to finding comfort in seeing some familiar faces! 

xo to all that we love.
