Finally sand was found and we had to hire 10 youth from the village to work in the wash rocks and sand, a long and tedious, even painful given the weather. Three days of work have been necessary for the task to be performed and then the water was flowing out, but certainly still cloudy in about a month the system will take office at full speed.
A big thank you to our friend, Bunthy, headmaster of wood for his invaluable collaboration.
Special thanks to Mr. HO our favorite taxi speaking for his help in this endeavor.
The village chief and the head of the town we have the honor to visit us to see this system work, they were very interested and we were congratulated for their work.
We took the opportunity to share a meal with them French, the menu, sausages, pâté, French wine delicious omelets and our head cook since the departure of Mary Claire.
During the meal we provided $ 350 USD which followed at 150 USD, the head of the county, to finance the dam, then we told our hosts that we'll probably be able to fund further work, namely 2000 USD once again that the sum will be held in France. A big thank you to our donors who helped launch this vital work for the village. A sum of 1000 euros has already been found in a few days.
Amanda has performed feats in the field of plumbing and electrical connections in the past machines. Didier

A big thank you to our entire team (40 degrees in the shade ... ...) has managed to adapt and find his rhythm of work ... and napping. Denis
meanwhile worked mainly on the draft water treatment and had to move heaven and earth to find the necessary materials. More links forged with local authorities allow us to consider extending the school that will become necessary in the future, but for this we will need new collaborations Local.
We have to thank Ludo for his dedication to the school, Stephen, who left us for France, but had to take a week of forced vacation in Bangkok.
Through friendships as woven summon Simon, one of the teachers, we were invited to a school in a neighboring village. We were surprised to receive an extremely warm welcome. The teachers and director, English, we have long presented challenges and objectives of their work. Our students were able to take advantage of courses and wished Ms. MOUNAL deliver some presents to children. We are left with deep desire to help one way or another.
Tonight we received the Unexpected Resort Hotel in beautiful surroundings in the middle of a forest of palm by Jacques, the director and his team to celebrate 20 years of Claire. We will be joined by Jocelyne Marie Laure and Daniel met in three French Phnom Penh who came to the school of wood and we were pleased to present the students and our achievements.
Tomorrow Saturday night we are invited by the alumni of the French school of Descartes Phnom Penh to attend a charity dinner for ESK.
During the evening Denis has set up a videoconference with the general council of the allies in a meeting called MAGMA. Straight from ATHANOR in the town of Montlucon, several teams from different parts of the planet will be connected through the Internet and present their work and projects. These different associations are all supported by the General Council of the combine. This meeting is very important for Denis who is keen to thank the President of the General Council of the combine and his team of international service for their valuable support to the association Smiles. We just hope not to be betrayed by the Internet connection.
Finally we note that the return flight is confirmed and our nurse Mary returned to France without problem by the same company as ours. A priori, this return should be okay. As a precaution Denis was still delivered to the embassy and met with the Consul, who confirmed the resumption of regular flights from Cambodia. Finally
entire team sincerely thanks Mr. DEMANGE headmaster of the school city of Presles TRUCHON VIDAL Madam DEPUTY headmaster of the Lycée Albert LONDON that allowed the whole team and especially our three young Amanda, Claire and Simon to participate in a unique human adventure. They never demerits.
