Enter Sandman
We started work today building the water filters for the local villages (for more info have a look at the link on the right). Our first job was sifting and washing sand to go in the filters. This is a bit like washing dirt! Before long we were covered in sweat and Dulcie’s shoes were full of sand; it was just like being back on the beach in Bermuda. Tomorrow we will progress to gravel.
I’m attempting to pick up a bit of the local lingo but the Khmer alphabet has 33 consonants and 24 vowels (the Welsh could learn something there) so progress is slow. I’ve also leant that there are approximately 1,000 temples around Angkor Wat so if we visit one a day we should be out of Cambodia some time in 2011.
