Driving through Port-au-Prince was driving through a constant cloud-dust. The roads are unpaved, sand and stones and gravel all throughout. There would be stretches of paved road, maybe a concrete road that was more or less even … But most of the time, we were bouncing around from side to side, from front to back, as we navigated the bumps, pot-holes, rocks and rubble on the road …
And we came upon this, on the way to the house …
So … which came first .. the tree or the road?
Christopher says that the tree came first … so everybody drives around it, no questions asked. Besides, it was too old and too big to be worth the trouble of cutting it down and uprooting, so it stays.
Well … what about this, then?
Oh, wait … we have that too here … they just happened to be planted in the middle of a concrete island …
A little bit of this and that ...
