Big progress at little school

If you look carefully you can see that the steel grid supports are now showing from our expertly dug foundations -after much digging, and two mornings of bailing water from the holes, our local builder assistants have now cemented them into place.
And the green grass patch that we started with is now a mud bath with big holes in - seriously considering a last day mud wrestling competition but we don't think we would get any muddier than we already are.

You will also notice that it is not actually raining in the photo as well - today (Tuesday) we got some real sunshine! Wow.
After five mins of sun and no rain becky and Millie were heard to comment that they wanted the rain back as it cooled them down.

Siesta time this afternoon will mostly be spent by muddy people washing themselves and attempting to dry some clothes - the humidity here means that mostly things get more wet when they are hung out overnight
We are all quite excited by the possibility of clean and dry pants tomorrow - it's the little things in life that keep you going!
3 or 4 days to go and then we might manage a shower instead of a bucket wash - maybe , hopefully , we can dream !
