Kris had a light day yesterday, just "small stuff" so they hope to find a better location. It sounds like the mobile field hospital was delayed due to the congestion at the Port airport. I haven't heard yet how today went but it is 9:40 so probably tomorrow we will hear.
Busloads of people are arriving even in this area from Port. The latest reports are saying about 200,000 dead and 1.5 million homeless.
I've been watching for photos/video to be posted by the media missionary that Kris rode to Port with. There are several videos, I only saw the first one so far "This is how the world will end" which isn't about the quake but is an impressive view of life in the City Soliel slum and the beauty/resiliency of the kids really shows.
(I just watched "The day after" If you don't want to see a lot of dead bodies in the streets 24 hours after the quake don't watch it)

A few kids hiked with Eli, Anna and I to the top of the small mountain in back of the mission after school. Makes a good hike of about an hour. I'll try to get some local photos for tomorrow.
