Shit water

I suppose one downside to getting so much done so early, it means there's no much more of the day to do some work. This afternoon was our first taste of labour. We were here to volunteer after all. We were driven out a short distance from the main site to a series of tree nurseries where we had to water some sapplings. Not the best photo to illustrate but once inside the perimeter fence, which is electrified to defend against baboons (and an area much larger than this indoor segment), we were handling water recycled from the sewage system - shit water, they called it. And it smelled as such. And so, with our hands getting wet and eventually drops covering out clothes, it was no time to get out the phone or camera. It was dull work but didn't take more than a couple of hours. Katarina and I were also given a pothole to fill so with a wheelbarrow and a pile of dirt, we did some road maintenance. That was somewhat more satisying. I think we did a decent job.
