- At first the key (and we believed, only) issue was getting the container shipped and cleared through customs.
- Soon realized we needed to be sure they had enough galvanized roof sheeting for 37 building available on the islands; ordering a shipment from Australia after we arrive could make for a lot of sitting around and waiting once we got there. Of course, our contact person was out doing his job which made it a week or so to get a response, which presented even more questions.
- In the mean time, there are a few structural questions going. There are some new variables that haven't been issues with the previous erection of the One Day Church - typhoons and anchoring in sand.
- And there are several other little matters that have to be cleared before we leave. For example: power tools- bring (120V) or import from Australia (220V); battery or corded w/generator; enough for 2 teams or 3.
- Oh yes. Don't forget those two guys coming to train from Canada and Australia. Another coordination variable.
- And to add a little interest, my renewed passport has still not arrived.
Are you finding the humor?
