    Reconnaissance trip to Sindhupalchowk by Manjushri's Helpers

    It was 5.15 PM when we left Kathmandu for Sindhupalchowk.  We needed to determine how many shelters we could provide this badly effected earthquake district.  We had hoped to reach Barbise by 8PM that night.  It started raining heavily as we approached Simle, so we stopped for dal bhat (rice and lentils).  Suddenly the ground was shaking violently.  It was another earthquake of at least a 5. magnitude, which kept jolting us over and over, and the epicenter was again in Sindhupalchowk.

    Successful Delivery of Relief Supplies: The Manjushri's Helper Project

    We just finished speaking to our man on the ground Kesab.  He has been going out to the outlying villages and delivering water, rice, dhal, noodles and chura.  He has gone also to Cheppu's micro credit village of Tokha which was badly hit - at least 5 women farmers are homeless.  The organizer of the micro group who knew how to get in touch with all of the members was killed in the quake.  Kesab delivered supplies to the Tokha residents also.  Today he is going out to two other small villages (Sankhu and Boudhanilakhanta) which are getting no help from the larger organizations.
