Setting up the site
we need to furnish your own water so we set it on top of the container so that we would have some gravity feed on the water. also seen is a truck delivering lumber rebar plywood and cement. and just a general shot of the site being prepared.
The Zambian crew
Hopefully they will will continue to do as well as a they did today. communication is a little tough but we have a couple that understand English pretty well. spent most of the day preparing the site getting water delivered, gravel delivered and spread. In Zambian culture the women are the bread winners of the family. so we have 4 men and 2 women on our crew. the people assigned to us were picked out by the local chief.
