That which doesn't kill you, makes you fat.
I apologize for the long time between posts again. Cange has been without internet for two weeks now and I have been at Morne Michel for a lot of that time. On the bright side, we have finished up all masonry for the project and now we just have to paint!
After testing the water sources at Morne Michel, we decided it would be wise to start trying to mitigate their water issues ASAP. Let's just say that livestock walking through drinking water is typically an unhealthy phenomenon and can be an indicator for contamination. Here, you can see me and one of my workers handing out Aquatabs (point-of-use chlorine tablets) to the children in a classroom after explaining the importance of good hygiene and clean water.
In order to prevent children from running all over the wet concrete, we had to put up a temporary barrier around the courtyard. Naturally, this only made children more curious to see what we were up doing. Here, you can see one of our workers being watched by two children behind the wall.
Here is a picture of myself, looking at our finished product. I'll have more pictures later on this week if we can get better internet. I am extremely pleased with how everything turned out. See the picture below for a look at the new entrance of the school; we built the steps and courtyard.
