Haiti, from a cruise ship's perspective

After the earthquake, cruise ships still pay to use rest stops on the island, thus helping the economy.

What beautifully coloured water. I imagine the beautiful surroundings doesn't make the current hardships much easier for the Haitian people.

I draw much attention that water looks green, it seems an excellent idea to help solve the problems of the country after the earthquake. Many have already forgotten about Haiti. A nice greeting and post.

Tourism plays such a big part in bringing revenue into places like this and that is why tourists should not stop going after something happenes because that is when the people need it the most.

I hope the Haitian people can rebuild with the help of tourism dollars. The colours are beautiful as always in the tropics. Did you go ashore??
