The rivers are the lifeline. Almost all villages are located along rivers and that is how we will travel to them via canoe or motorized canoe. Dang, I should have packed more dry bags. The river will be our source to good hygiene and health by acting as our drinking water, bath water, and laundry use. They also have eels, sting rays, and piranhas to keep us on guard. I guess I won’t needing my goggles.
In preparation, we had a demonstration in hand washing clothes and tried it ourselves. We were all quite terrible being constantly corrected. J Apparently it is easier at the river with rocks and such versus our buckets and brushes.
