Photo taken in Ouagadougou;
waiting until the pump in the community is 'turned back on' so reserves for the day can be filled up.
In this particular community pumps were shut down for 20 - 23 hours a day and usually came on late at night. Each family then scrambled to get a hold of water sufficient enough for the next day. It appeared this was not commonplace - that normally pumps functioned for longer, but this had been happening for a number of weeks in the midst of 50degree temperatures.
