So we all know B spends most of her life looking like she's just been sweeping a chimney....but add in red African dirt and it's spectacular. Takes a lot if scrubbing!
We seem to spend a large proportion of the evening pouring jugs of cold water over our children....not for the night's entertainment...but because the house water tank is empty so we've been brought a few tubs of water for washing/cooking. The town's water supply turns on once a week to fill the house tanks....but it didn't fill this week, nor last, so we ran out of water on Monday. And it's a technique the girls have yet to master on their own.
Certainly makes us very conscious how much water our household uses....we tried filling the loo cistern to see how much it uses...5 jugs!! I can wash B entirely using 2....
Looking forward to finding a swim & a shower in Tanga this weekend.....heading there for a big shop
