We headed up the mountain to see the sights. At Fort Jacques there is a good view of Port-au-Prince from the walkway around the fort.
There were a lot of people at Fort Jacques because of the holiday -"La Mort de Dessalines" ( translated as "the death of Dessalines")
On Sunday everybody piled onto Kimosabee to go to church. Kimosabee had no trouble!
We made a visit to the abandoned children's ward at General Hospital. The room was packed with 34 abandoned children.
Some beds had 3 and 4 children in one bed. The workers do their best to look after the children. Haitian society needs to change. The abandonment of children is becoming more of a problem here in Haiti and there are not very many missions who want to look after handicapped children.
