Sorry i couldn’t get back to you right away. We stayed in a compound of small one-story units. It was clean but bare-bones. It had a huge wall around it with broken bottles on top and a huge gate that let cars in and out. It had cement floors and a shower that worked some of the time. The electricity was the same way––periodically it would just go out and there would be no more reading or seeing the hand in front of your face for the rest of the evening! There was a small pool in the middle of the units and also a meeting room and a kitchen where we took most of our meals. We were told the compound was used as a respite for missionaries especially those coming to Port-Au-Prince from the rural areas of Haiti. The sounds at night were unfamiliar and took some getting used to. We could hear drums in the distance and chinking all during the night. Just outside our compound was an older man sitting on a pile of rocks––he was simply turning the rocks into gravel.

Dr. King would be proud of the way the US is stepping up to help the people of Haiti.

Edna and Dick, It is evident that you have a real caring for the Hatians. Thanks for sharing and keep us posted. The organizations you mention are really helping the people. I recommend everyone look at the sites.

Hi Travis, Thanks for your question. Little Folks Discovery Center was on Oro Blanco Drive near the corner of Barnes Avenue. It’s now a Joseph’s Montessori. Some day I’ll dig out a picture and include it with a blog. It was just a vacant field at first and then the two story building took shape with a very large wrap-around playground. I wanted it to look like a house, thinking that would be a warm place for young children, kindergarteners, and shool-agers. It was opened in 1981 and later moved to a different building on the North side of town.

Where was the Little Folks Discovery Center located? Was that in Manitou?
