God is good! And if you've been following facebook, you already know that I made it! I finally got all the way out to "the bush" last night just after dark. I've been very welcomed, and it has been the smoothest of transitions. Cameroon was very Haiti-like initially, so that also made it seem familiar. On the way out to Dimako, we went to a market... it was cool. I never had the opportunity to visit the markets and purchase things in Haiti, so it was something new! It was an uneven area, so unfortunately I couldn't look around as much as I wanted because I was watching my footing. But it was still neat. I could feel people's eyes on me...it was a little unnerving, but, as I experienced in Haiti, it was "Welcome to the fishbowl!" They even have the same word for us, calling out, "blan!"
...I'm journaling and videoing, so more to come!
