It was always a bit awkward at the school when it came to eating and drinking.  It was almost 90 degrees every day and we were standing outside in the sun most of the day so it goes without saying you would get hot, thirsty and hungry.  We had lunch packed for us by the hotel and had a cooler of water in our trucks, but the problem is we are constantly surrounded by kids who often go hungry and don’t always have access to clean water.  I would always be sure not to drink outside amongst the kids, but even when I would sneak inside the truck for a drink of water there would be kids peering inside the windows asking for water.  At one point I caved and gave Lester some water and watched as he was amazed that the water was cold, then watched him march around like he was carrying a trophy he had won, so proud to have cold water.  It was a difficult reality to deal with and I ended up trying not to eat or drink until after we left the village in the end.
