Platon

Up at dawn after sleeping well in the school building at Platon.
The trail downhill is very busy with people walking to market with heavy loads on their head and they aren't wearing "trail runner shoes", believe me! We also see flocks of sheep and a large oxen being led down every once in a while.
Coffee and granola bars for breakfast then Paul gathered his materials for the Rain on the Roof project. They were supposed to leave at 7:30 but will prob actually closer to 8:30.

One of our most exciting days this trip was the day we were in Platon to do medical clinics.  In addition to the medical clinics we had another project to investigate.  Way back 3 months ago, Paul, Amoce and I went up to Platon to have a meeting with the community there.  We like to take the opportunity to listen to what a community has to say.  We asked them what their biggest problems were.  One that rose to the top was having sufficient water.  The discussion about water went on for a long time.  They told us there were two springs (sous) that ran all year long.
