After lunch we headed to an orphanage a few minutes away. After a few shuffled plans, we went for a hike with the children from the orphanage and another mission team. This was the view from the top. Beautiful! We enjoyed spending time with the kids and meeting the other team.

Papillon! by Melanie McCoy | July 29, 2016 12:42 PM
Before heading to the airport we stopped at Papillon Enterprise and had lunch and did some shopping. The company provides jobs for parents in Haiti so they don't have to give up their children for adoption.
