Posted by DHS on behalf of, and at the request of Haile Wubneh:

"HH Q 104 What do you want to measure? Time spent traveling or time spent waiting to get turn or both? It is not specific to one of the two (1. Travel Time, 2. Waiting time to fill the jar or pot)."

HH Q104 asks the respondent to tell us how long it takes to do both (time spent travelling and time spent waiting and filling the container). The question states: "How long does it take to go there, get water, and come back?" ("go there" and "come back" refer to travel time, and "get water" includes any time spent waiting and filling the container). This is also reinforced in training.
