Week 2




Matt Here,

Big science w/ fine results: over 95% removal on all BSF's built in 2010.

Tons of beautiful people, happy to have us,
heavy food, (yes, some) black virus, kava, 5pm lemon tea with 10lbs of bread, marriage questions, heavy rain, giant indoor wasps, boils. It's great.

Hello Buca Bay 2011!

Bula!

EWB is back and we are ready to rock in Buca Bay! Shakeel and I (Kristen) arrived last Monday after 33 hours of traveling from the time we left SFO until we arrived in Savusavu still two hours away from the villages of Buca, Loa, and Vunikura. We got a flat tire on our drive from Labasa to Savusavu but luckily it was right in front of a mechanical academy and a bunch of students came out and changed the tire for us :)

We had meetings in all of three of the villages this week, and everyone is excited and pumped to start construction next week.

We'll try and post some pictures soon!

Moce,
Kristen
