Today we got up very early around 5:00 in the morning and got 4 3 gallon jugs, I would carry 2 and Maugue would also carry 2 of them. we started our 5 mile walk. we were both still partly sleeping and did not walk at all on the way there. When we got there there were a couple of other people there too and we walked up and had a five minute break before getting water. We got up 5 minutes later and walked over to the pond and filled up. to get 6 gallons of water there I learned was very hard and it took us most of the day with all of the other people that showed up during the day. we finally filled completely up by 5:00 and then started our walk back to the village we were 2 miles away from the village and it sun started to set. Marugue told me to hurry so that the animals would not get us at fully dark. we started to both hurry as fast as we can with 3 gallons in each hand, which was not very fast. it felt like forever but we finally got back to his hut. we were both starving but also very hungry but we went to bed knowing there wasnt anything to have. So we both fell asleep a couple minutes later.
