Someone stated to me, "don't drink the water". I told her that we are given purified bottled water that is supplied to us. A water cooler is in the main building, next to the kitchen. We are encouraged to fill up.
The blue, water towers pictured here are used for washing clothing, cooking water, and showering. This tower was being built at the end of the first trip to Nicaragua in 2005.
People have been asking me...
1. What are the buildings like where you stay?
The team building is sort of like a duplex. Women's bedroom on one side with an attached bathroom, and a Men's bedroom with an attached bathroom. Towels are supplied for our use.
2. Where do you sleep? Each room in the team house has bunk beds in them for team members to sleep in at night. We do not have to bring any bedding or blankets as they are provided by the organization.
The beds are quite comfie. They also supply electric fans in the rooms for nights it is too warm.
Staff for the organization clean the bathrooms and bedrooms everyday. Of course we are responsible for our belongings.
To the right you see the main team house meeting area. There are two rooms to each side of the house, like the team house above. The only difference between this house and the house above is there is a kitchen, pantry and dining area.
I am almost ready. I did buy a carry on suitcase today. I am going to try to only work a half day tomorrow. I am gonig to start packing my clothes tonight.
I will hopefully post one more time, friday. Tomorrow I hope to put up some pics of construction work we have done on previous trips.
Love to you all...Tammie Kay
