4/8/08 : On Monday we made a form for a latrine plat, but it POURED rain. Add to that the daily electric power outages of 4-6 hours and the unbelievable cost of living, and it becomes challenging. I don't know how people afford to eat. Diesel, which is cheaper than gasoline by a fair amount, is $7.77/gallon. On Tuesday , we poured the cement for the latrine slab and trained for construction of a twin VIP latrine that we will construct in Mapalo. No rain today fortunately. The people here are inspiring. Some were really excited to learn that sanitation has the most impact of the WASH elements.
