Great time in the villages!

 Kids watching the filters arrive

 Many kids didn't have shoes. Elijah broke his sandals before we even arrived at the first village. I couldn't find a replacement b/c none of the villages sold a pair of kids shoes. I eventually bought a women's pair from the market, gave them to Eva to wear, and gave hers to Elijah.

 At one point, our boat grounded on sand in the river and a propeller broke. These guys from the next village came out to help...

... and pulled our boat across the river to their village.
