water

I am not sure about the water situation in the area where we will be staying but I sure hope we don't need to carry it on our heads. Can I just say, "Ouch!" I must have a very wimpy head and neck because I tried it and, for starters, couldn't get the full bucket up there. In fact, I had trouble getting a half full bucket up onto my head. And it was very uncomfortable. So not only do people in Zambia have to walk miles to get water and not only is it contaminated but they carry buckets full back on their heads. Not sure about you, but I am amazed! Maybe if we worked together we could do something about the lack of safe drinking water around the world. Hmmmm......
