Back at Base

I've been out in the field a lot but now we're back at base for a few days. A chance to catch up on the growing pile of washing... this is a long and very manual process!

All water, for washing and drinking, needs to be collected and brought to site. We're lucky enough to have a vehicle so we can go to the sweeter tasting wells, slightly further afield, for our drinking water (less metalic). Water for washing is collected from the river and stored in a big well in camp.

At least I don't have to lug buckets of water far unlike the residents who use head, hands, bikes and motor bikes for transporting it from well to home.
