[ayiti] La Difference on camera
Watching this video almost made me cry - more out of delight than anything else. This was our 'last stop' before flying out of Port-au-Prince last month, but it is also my strongest memory of Haiti. (Ok, I guess the hysterical moths that came out to mate during the rainstorm at GRU is also a pretty vivid memory. Or any conversation with Harvey.)
La Difference also inspired me to consider how something as simple as paving can figuratively 'pave' the way for further clean up and community development. Is there a way to go back? J'espere que oui. (And hopefully I'll sometime be able to translate that into Creole.)
