The Water Project pt 2

Lady cleaning her container before collecting water

What does it actually look like when a river or stream dries up and the villagers have to dig about a metre deep in the sand to get water. This lady shows how it's done!

It's quite a mission as the ladies still have to carry the containers to their homes - either carrying it on their heads which is the norm, or using a wheel barrow.
