The Container

Finally on Friday we got the container out of customs. Angelo has been trying for weeks to get it. Carole had to cancel an entire work team from the States. They were supposed to build the bunk beds that were on it but now the team has to be rescheduled. It was a total mess. Why was the container late? The port and customs officials have been saying for weeks that it was behind other containers. But as soon as Carole showed up at the office we found out the real reason. They wanted a $1,000 bribe. But, hey, we got the container. The bunk beds will be built in August and the house will be able to take in several more girls.
