The adobe brick moving mission continues

The wall around Cuylandia has nearly finished but the Paucarbamba workers are still short of 3000 bricks to complete their job. This Thursday an additional 6 families from the Paucarbamba community had their 260 bricks ready to move. The Casa Hogar del Sol team put up posters all around Ollantaytambo and Kim put up posters around the Loki hostel for additional volunteers to help with moving these 1310.

Unfortunately only 5 volubteers turned up from Loki and 7 people from Casa Hogar del Sol. As 2 trucks had been hired we had our work cut out. After finding 2 additional (drunken) men in Ollantaytambo willing to do some hard labour we managed to get the bricks moved in 3 runs between the 2 locations working from 10am until 6pm. A long hard day and lots of aching muscles!

 A big thank you once again to Loki for their continued to support and for their donation of 250 soles (approximately £55) towards the cost of moving the bricks.
