Today was amazing. We reached our goals and beyond. The colleges of Science, Law and Inaghei now have a wireless network.

Our team headed out at 6:30 am today and got back at 8:30 pm making for a very tired, sunburned and dirty but satisfied crew. I would like to thank all of the guys for their amazing work this week, Shivesh, Kshitij, Brian, Dan, Caleb, and Stephan, you were all amazing fellow students to work with and I couldn’t have asked for a better student team. Our group leaders, Achille, Lee, Chris and my Dad all did an awesome job keeping everything running smoothly and directing us in the best way possible. You have all been awesome and had such a good attitude, even after being crammed into a van every day and shipped around in the 90 degree heat, surviving storms, living off cliff bars, and being so bro. You guys are champs.

I think we all couldn’t have been happier when we saw the huge smiles and cheers of the students after we helped them connect to the new wireless network we had put in, and watch as they were blown away that they could get to web pages in only a few seconds. Many students expressed interest in what we were doing, especially at Inaghei, and asked us several time when it was going to be ready. Some students and a couple of staff even stayed at the college late so they could be the first ones to try out the new network. I am truly blessed to have been able to go on this trip and I would come back next week if I was allowed to.

 

Oh and a special HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHOUT OUT to Brian! Happy 21 dude!

 

More pictures soon to come. Bon Soir!
