I hung out with a few of the folks who are going on the trip and got some of my questions answered. Here are some trip details.
1. There ARE bathrooms at the clinic we'll be staying at, but not when we're out working. That means that if we have to pee (or worse... POOP!) in the middle of the day, we'll have to do it in front of people. But Haiti doesn't have a sewer system. We're coming up with a portable cover-up. hehe. They also don't have a water system - which explains why we're installing the gutter water collectors.
2. I need more shots.
3. We'll be carrying our bags a little bit, but we'll be riding in a truck (that apparently doesn't have shocks) for hours up a mountain. Ouch?
4. Modesty is a big deal.
5. We're going to take little inexpensive gifts for the kids there - apparently they get geeked about that.
More later - starting to get excited! <3
