First Week in Photos

First week is done 3 more to go.  I’ve had some interesting adventures in the kitchen.  The first lunch I had 7 children and 4 ladies from the village helping me.  By the time lunch was served we were all exhausted but it tasted pretty darn good!  It’s been a bit of an adjustment learning some new ways of organizing a kitchen for example moving the gas element into the middle of the kitchen floor while flames are licking up the sides of the clay pots…the ladies are totally in control and somehow their long skirts never catch on fire. 
The firefighters are working hard every day and accomplishing a lot. For those of you that are reading that are friends and family of these men and women you should be very proud of their hard work and dedication.  We are all very thankful for their time and dedication to get this project completed by the end of this month. 
We seem to be making some great connections here and this project keeps collecting more support and enthusiasm with every day.  Here are some photos of our first week.  Sorry it’s been a little while since the last post it’s been long days and early nights getting to sleep.
