We spent the day doing photography for the church's Habitat for Humanity project. We are making up a brochure here for the church to help them raise more funds to buy more land, to build more houses. We got up at 6.30 and drove to the block of land they are planning to purchase and took photos of that. Then on the way home we stopped by the local fish market to take some photos of it, but unfortunately it was all over by the time we got there. All that was left was a few fish lying around on the ground....(kind of disconcerting considering that we were going out for dinner to a seafood restaurant that night).
Then we went back in the afternoon to take photos of the people and houses at the current Habitat for Humanity site. On the way we stopped by the Plastic Recycling Centre which is run by some of the people living at Habitat. It gives them 'better' work than they originally had. They collect plastic bags, wash them, dry them out, bundle them up, and sell them to the recyclers.
The rest of these photos are from the Habitat project. We spent some time taking a lot of photos there, the houses only cost about US$1300 to build. Sarah took this first image!
These are some twins from the project.

thanks for the update, it great to see some of the places and people you have seen. Love the photo of the kiddies on the bench! And to think you can build a house for only $1300, such a different world. Hope you are both keeping well, love from all of us here oxox
