Part of it maybe had to do with it being like a rush hour in Haiti or just how chaotic it is to drive in the city. I asked Edwin how do you navigate with no consistent street signs and streetlights. His answer: you just have to feel it. Yet he says he gets lost in a city like Paris which has an abundance of signs everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>Chad had said he had shed a few tears when he left Haiti on prior trips. I wasn&#8217;t expecting it would happen to me but it did as our jet lifted off and the island got smaller.<\/p>\n<p>More photos an video to come.
