All of the volunteers loaded up today for a Ft Jacques visit. We piled in the white van and Dave drove us up there and Holli gave a tour to those who hadn't visited the future GLA location. For the first time however I walked to the real fort. It was a military compound that protected Haiti. It was built in 1805 on top of the mountain over looking Port Au Prince. Some of the fort unfortunatly slid down the mountain during the quake in 2010 but still a majority stands strong. I picked up a tour guide as named Jean Peter. He spoke pretty good english and had good (mostly acurate) information to share.
