Laundry in Haiti

I love this picture because it shows the two washers that are here yet not working. If the power goes out when the washer is plugged in, it blows the mother board so washers don't last long.
But Rosalie does a better job at cleaning than any old washer anyway. And the girls love to help/wash. This picture was taken shortly before SF fell in the bucket.

The drying is a different situation. It is pretty humid up the mountain and overcast so drying is a little tricky. It took 2 days to "dry" and dry is a loose term. They usually iron everything to help it finish drying and to take that musty smell out. We do not have an iron yet. However, after smelling our "clean" towels, it is on the top of my list.

  1. Glad there are helpers for the laundry. The hanging dry part would be hard for me too.
