A big day on the job again today and some major victories too:
1. The cement renderer worked on the last room and will finish the hall tomorrow.
2. Carpet was laid in two of the three rooms. To be finished tomorrow.
3. The kitchen window shutters were installed and painted.
4. And, the landlord removed the rat gnawed electrical cables and will replace them.
We spent the late afternoon with the 'DSA family' hosting a BBQ kindly organised by Maggie Piper.
Our six students served a delicious BBQ Nepali meal on banana leaf plates to each of the 34 kids and 10 or so adults. As they all busily devoured their meal, it struck us that the kids were silent for the first time since we arrived.
With only two days left at DSA the younger children have started to ask when we are leaving. We were even told by one of the older girls in sign language that they will cry when we leave. It certainly will be a difficult goodbye for us also.
