This is a picture of our shower. Yes, you may notice many things missing, like a shower curtain, for instance. But what is really missing cannot be seen. Hot Water. The water that comes out of this spout is basically freezing, and it's not yet hot enough outside to enjoy a cold shower. This presents another option for showering. You can fill the silver bucket with water, plug in the black water heater (which is attached to the top of the bucket), wait for 20-30 minutes for the water to warm up, then use the little red cup thing (attached to the top of the pink bucket) to pour water over yourself. And I might say...the second option is much better than the first. :)

oh my...At first I thought that was the toilet too (the pails) and got a little worried for you guys. Glad to know that's the warmer option for the shower. Cold showers were ok in Jamaca...not sounding so good there from what you're describing. I see your nice shampoos there up on the shelf...all is not lost. =o)
we love you guys and I check this blog about everyday...so keep us posted when you can.

Hey Bahlers,
It is so good to see & hear the sights, sounds, and memories you are experiencing! I definitely laughed several times reading through your first few days :)
We love you both & are praying...a bit more diligent than your first night in India! :) j/k
I check your blog daily, so keep those posts coming when you can!
Love ya-Kate (and Arlan)
alesa...oh, how i can relate to the showers...also, sometimes feeling more dirty once i was out than before i went in. the water heater was very terrifying to me since the place was not grounded and i was afraid for my very life when sticking in the metal piece into water! i had to evalute if my life was worth warm water, which on some few mornings, it was. :)
