I woke up to a bunch of laughter and talking. The group from Ohio was leaving later on the day, but a friend pulled a prank on them and put a rooster in their room as a wake up call. Apparently, the rooster rummaged around in the room for about 10 minutes before hopping up on a bed and giving his wake-up call. From what I hear, the lights went on, blankets went flying, boys started screaming and ran out of the room. I missed most of the action, but it was still hilarious seeing their faces when I got there.
We left for the job-site around 7am, and arrived to it at 8:45ish. This time we took only 2 SUV's to bring our group of 8 to the job-site. In my car, the 4runner, we had 2 in the trunk, 2 in the back, and 2 in the front. It was quite a site. Good thing the cops in Haiti aren't as strict on the seatbelt law as police are in the states.

Today was probably the hardest day of work we had while in Haiti. We finished laying the block and built forms to pour concrete in to create a bond beam at the top of the house. A couple of us left early to go to the airport and pick up a teammates baggage that still hadn't arrived. After several rounds of security checks and much convincing on our drivers part, he was able to get his bag and all his belongings.
We came home, cooled off in a pool, and ate some dinner. After that I don't remember much. It must the the reward to a hard days work, a good nights sleep.
