Tents


Another common theme among the Haiti pictures are the tents. At first glance, many of the pictures seem similar and you may think you are seeing the same thing. Rona explained that after the earthquake all the parks in the city were taken over by survivors. What you are really seeing are different tent cities in different parks around the city.






People prefer these park areas since they usually offer a bit of shade from the hot sun.











This is one park that was closed off to keep people out. City officials hope to preserve the park.










This is the "family" tent. Rona's family sleeps in this tent at night since they are afraid to go back into their house until it has been inspected.
