Getting a later start than expected, our cars join up with ODA as we head out for the two hour drive to the field to visit more projects in Jeju. Again, we split into two groups to cover more ground, hoping to visit a total of 12 communities today. Most of these projects have been completed in the last six months.
These projects are located in some very remote valleys. To give you an idea of what the paths are like near the wells, take a look a the picture above. John and Jim’s car literally fell into the ditch! It was only with the help of several local farmers that helped to dig out from under the car that it was able to emerge.
It was a successful day. Our two groups visited 8 of the 12 communities. Our time in the field was cut short by the afternoon rains, which is a real blessing for the farmers, whose crops are starting to emerge.
Tomorrow we will visit project in Arsi.
