My trip to Miami has started similarly to some previous ones ... with flight delays from Toronto! Instead of arriving in Port au Prince today, I'll have to wait until tomorrow and will spend the night in Miami. It's frustrating to spend months in preparation and then to experience this. However, in keeping with the Haitian spirit, c'est la vie!
Fortunately, I can catch an early morning flight from Miami tomorrow which will get me into PAP by 7:30 am. By the time we drive up into the mountain where I'll be located on this trip, the morning class I'm teaching should only have to be delayed by an hour or two.
I'll update the blog as frequently as I can over the next week. It will be a jam-packed week of lectures, meetings with M.Ed. students and Ministry of Education officials, and completing the evaluation component of a research project I began on my last trip.
