A Hope and a Future: November 2010
http://cecelia-ahopeandafuture.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
A Hope and a Future. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Friday, November 5, 2010. Sometimes it seems to me as though there is just one cause for fear after another here in Haiti. There is still a threat of cholera making its way into Port-au-Prince. Our streets have been disturbed by gunfire in broad daylight right outside our doors. And this week, for me at least, has been dominated by fear and anxiety over the approach of Hurricane Tomas. Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down! God is your refuge and strength,...

A Hope and a Future: January 2011
http://cecelia-ahopeandafuture.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
A Hope and a Future. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Since I'm home for two weeks, you get lots of pictures! Sorry for the lack of posts in the last month, the internet has been out at the orphanage for quite a while. Back in September we got to meet Michelle Martelly (Sweet Mickey) while he was campaigning in our neighborhood. The kids were all really excited to meet him because he's such a popular musician, but they unanimously agree they don't want him as president! Goats are pretty cute. I'm writing this ...

A Hope and a Future: March 2011
http://cecelia-ahopeandafuture.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
A Hope and a Future. Thursday, March 3, 2011. Adventures in public transportation. This week has been a lot of fun. The kittens are getting bigger. They look less like rodents and more like cats now, which is exciting. And so we've been taking pictures. Of course. I wish I could say this was not my idea. I have a cat named after me, woohoo. Another awesome part of last week was that I got to see Mike Ruth! Sorry it's kind of dark, Haitian sun makes pictures very difficult. Where is her driver? Also 15 go...

A Hope and a Future: The other side of the island
http://cecelia-ahopeandafuture.blogspot.com/2011/04/at-beginning-of-march-i-went-to.html
A Hope and a Future. Thursday, April 14, 2011. The other side of the island. 8221; Yes. Not so eloquent, but really, I was surprised by roads without potholes, and skyscrapers, and shopping malls. Also parking lots! Those don’t exist in Port-au-Prince. Kattia, in the special needs house at NPH Casa Hogar in the DR. Captain Jack Sparrow."but why is all the rum gone? Beautiful, blue, very warm water. April 14, 2011 at 2:46 PM. Wow, that beach looks gorgeous! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jeff - J-PAL...

So Far in Bihar: October 2010
http://sofarinbihar.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
So Far in Bihar. Friday, October 29, 2010. You may be wondering what Jeff and I have been up to during this long spell between blog posts. Have they been teaching their pup to be a model canine citizen? Have they been hanging out in coffee shops in Patna, or strolling through the tourist sites? Or have they been busting their butts for JPAL, working long, exhausting hours, just as if they were, whats the term, field RAs? Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Lalu is the best-loved Bihari street dog. We have a puppy!

So Far in Bihar. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Eating in Behea, LOTR-style. The food for the field staff is arranged by a survey company weve hired to take care of logistics. Its really good, if monotonous, and theyre incredibly eager to serve Madam (yeah, thats me). We had originally arranged for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but it turns out that the full meal plan at no additional cost is this:. Wednesday, April 27, 2011. Exploding Printers and 100 Kumars. Monday, April 25, 2011. Tuesday, April 19, 2011.

So Far in Bihar. Tuesday, December 23, 2014. Going through some photos from this summer on my computer, and came across a few gems from Motihari, Patna and Delhi. Casualty" is always a very sensible choice for a rural Indian medical complex (Motihari). Not sure what "Tick"s have to do with "Fun" and "Taste." On Boring Road in Patna. Very inspirational name for a Fitness Religion (Delhi). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A visual sample of our adventures. Throwback. can you believe how small Lalu is?

So Far in Bihar: July 2014
http://sofarinbihar.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
So Far in Bihar. Friday, July 25, 2014. Scenes from a school near Bettiah. One child called out the numbers 1-100 while the others echoed him, then he started again while I slipped away. I couldn't even fit all the children in this shot. Secondary students get tables! But there are just as many of them. Super steep slide. I kept watching for any children to play on it, just to see what would happen. The See-Saw of Death. Wednesday, July 23, 2014. Go figure we didn't take it literally enough. All of this ...

So Far in Bihar. Monday, January 31, 2011. Thursday, January 27, 2011. Despite not being fully healed, Lalu rocked the Patna Dog Show on Sunday. Yes, you heard me correctly. A dog show is something I would never consider participating in in the US, since everyone would be all snooty about breeds and behavior and such. But here in Patna, it was a riot. Thursday, January 20, 2011. Saturday, January 15, 2011. Turns out I'm not afraid of poop. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. Monday, January 3, 2011. Farah in Med...
