And after many months, her office called on December 17th: “Can you meet with the Minister on December 26th in her office in Port-a-Prince?”
You bet we would. We’d crawl over crushed glass to meet her.
We decided to go on Christmas Day, early in the morning, because we had an invitation for Christmas Dinner at the residence of a ranking officer of the US Embassy in Haiti.
Along the way, and on our trip in Haiti, we took some pictures and videos.
The trip was a fantastic success, and we’ll be back for the film production. And if all goes really well, we might even start an annual tour through Haiti for the truly adventurous riders.
If you ever wanted to know what crossing the Haiti-DR border and traveling in and around Port-a-Prince is like, enjoy these videos:
