Witchner arrived at Bradley International Airport in Hartford, CT at 6:30. Paul and I were there to meet him. He walked down the passageway so confidently that we weren't even sure it was him coming towards us. This was his first time flying on Southwest Airlines (i.e., no reserved seating), also his first time flying out of Pittsburgh and getting a connecting flight at BWI. He managed it all on his own without any telephone help. He's now been to 6 airports in two months!
As we drove home he used a common expression among college students at spring break: "I'm free!" Shortly after we got home he turned his computer on, got a cold drink and was IMing with Marie back in Haiti. At his bible school he's not allowed on the internet, so he was really anxious to be online.
