Voodoo Festival in Saut d'Eau, Haiti. Several women pray inside the Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. In the vicinity of this area thousands of pilgrims camped in tents in the open or as guests in the neighboring houses. They come after many hours away on foot, on donkeys and "tap tap", the typical coloradísimos and buses in search of good luck and benefits. In the poorest country of America, the cost of this trip can mean days or months of work, sacrifice will be rewarded by the blessings that come to you pilgrims to bathe in the mystical waters of Saut d'Eau waterfall (jump water, in French) in Ville Bonheur, department of the Centre.
