It was a quiet weekend and I thought I would take some photos of the people who hang around our street corner. I call it the "happy corner" because most of the time the people on the street are in a happy mood. "Rara bands" are a common sight here in Haiti. Here is one that made quite a bit of noise!
There are several motorcycles on the corner waiting for passengers. This guy is proud of his motorcycle. Sometimes there is a bit of congestion between the tap-taps and motorcycles on the corner, which makes it difficult for a vehicle to turn at the corner. They are pretty good though at making room for us when we turn at the corner. A friendly toot of the horn is all it takes!
This man asked to get his picture taken and struck up this pose. I think he likes his beard!
This is one of the "happy men" who hang out on the corner. He wanted to have his picture taken too and is a jolly fellow!
These tire changers are proud of their tire changing station. They have had to scurry several times already when the mayors workers came by and removed their stuff. It never takes them long though to set up their business again!
