On this occasion it was a 40 foot container with well over 400 computers tightly packed into it. The photographs are just thumbnails of full resolution pics but I hope they capture some of the spirit of the occasion.

The Container Arrives
There is something really special about being out here when a Camara container arrives. It really brings it home to you the importance of all the effort that goes into collecting, testing, refurbishing, cleaning and packing of the computers back in Ireland. The huge effort by the management team and the volunteers there to put all the logistics and systems in place for this to happen is often taken for granted. When the container arrives here after the enormous 6-8 week sea journey (passing down through the Suez canal and the Red Sea) and you see and feel the utter delight of people here unloading the computers, you wish that every single person that has ever helped Camara could be present to realise the value of their contribution.
