Patience is one thing you learn here. Our ITDP friends display this every day when temporary was pulled apart again so the villages can get some water. Their answer to this is "no problem" even after a day when the water supply has had some problems and they have climbed the 3.5km to the water source to check the line.
The delight on faces especially the children when water first comes into the village is something I will not forget.
When everything here is done the hard way, like sifting sand through a mesh to get fine sand for plastering and course sand for the filter tank one bucket of sand at a time. Digging trenches in the hard ground with a hoe in the heat. We appreciate the machine and they appreciate clean water nearly to the door.
