Cholera

Arrived on the island this afternoon after a long day of travel. Loaded down our 32-foot boat HEAVY with project equipment, tools, and supplies and people. In the process of loading, my Blackberry fell into the water. Aargh!

Cholera is here on the island. This is very concerning, of course, as we do not know how widespread this could become. We will be fine... we are drinking safe water, but the vast majority of people on this island do not have access to potable water.

I'll keep you posted
Steve
