Finally the tanks have arrived and I took some pictures to show you. My year is almost up and although the last few weeks have been really enjoyable I'm glad that it is. Each tank can fit up to 6000l and as the last family put it "would have taken us 3 years to achieve without extra help". I'm glad I chose 3 larger tanks instead of a few smaller ones because these will guarantee that the families have enough water throughout the year without having to fetch water from the rivers that are now (as rain season is over) visibly contaminated with pesticides and fertilizers or dirty puddles. Next to me on all three pictures is my host father Peter Kioko. Currently he is responsible for the observers of the upcoming election on the draft constitution and nervous about whether there will be any violence. He is happy though that "this time people do not hate each other for being Kikuyu or Luo but for yes or for no". Great progress!
