Latest from the Leader Matt on the Sat. Phone

Just got off the sat. phone from Matt deep in the jungles of Belize with an update on the project at Elijio Panti..............the Mandy (washing) facility is complete (!) and they have tapped a freshwater spring which has already filled the 400 gallon water container they hauled in. The 2 Palapas are almost complete - all the trekkers have learnt how to thatch locally with Cahoun Palm, and they have cleared the Helicopter Landing Site for future use in an emergency.

To cap the experience all off so far they had a Maya blessing ceremony by the niece of Don Elijio Panti, the famous Mayan herbalist. Wonderful ! Spirits are high and they are really enjoying the project. They have achieved so much already and the community of San Antonio and elsewhere are really pleased and grateful.
