Thousands of Haitians Move

In the mist of rubble, death, little resources and aftershocks, thousands of Haitians are migrating away from Port-au-Prince. The Trois Rivieres ferry is taking them to Port Jeremie. They were boarding overcrowded row boats in order to get to the ferry. The Trois Riveres is made to hold 600 people, but there were around 6,000 migrants on board.

Once there, they climbed up the side of the boat, and designed their own assembly line of people to help pass luggage, and children, from one person to the other, on board the ferryboat. CNN witnessed one infant passed up along a sea of hands from their dinghy all the way to the top of the ferryboat.
