Day 2. Sadly…the dormitories in the rescue centre. The rescuers are mostly volunteers so the accomodation is really poor.

I woke up early, selected and edited a few pictures and took them down to the printer before going to university. I’ve picked the pictures up and am on my way to deliver copies …
