I just wanted to add a little note to say a big thank you to Charlie 3 for generously sharing their project experience with me. My highlights were getting to know the Charlie 3 crew, the delicious local food and cups of sweet chai tea we were treated to whilst working, the amazing view from our school camp, the friendly villagers and playful school children, playing Mafia and Carribean Beats (thanks to Jija it's my new fav card game), swimming in the reservoir every evening to cool off and did I mention the food?
This is my favourite photo of the C3 crew, complete with a huge rainbow.
In other news, Echo 5 has been working extremely hard to cover the trench containing the water pipes and, at the bottom of the hill, Echo 6 has almost completed tanks 1 and 2 and are also progressing well with the trench that will connect them.
Charlie 1 has been busy moving the sand and bricks required to build the houses and are expecting to start the construction phase today.
The Hotel groups had a lovely night sleep and are excited to be starting their trek today. They have 10km walk in warm and sunny conditions and it doesn't get much better than that!
The loop is visiting Charlie 4 today and Charlie 2 on Sunday so keep watching this space for more exciting updates...
