Monday I started to teach Niranjan and Raju to weld. They spent most of the day trying to start an arc and make beads. They are both doing well for beginners. We purchased some metal tubing to make a shelter for the cooks. It is a small kitchen but I saw they had three stoves cooking. The best place that we found to weld is on top of the roof on the third floor. This place is the best because the children won't look at the arc while your trying to weld. We had to lift all the tubing up to the second floor balcony and then pass it onto the roof. Then we welded the structure together and lowered it by rope back to the ground. I welded some of Monday and most of Tuesday and finished early Wednesday. During that time Christy and Crystal kept the kids busy and off the roof. We still need to buy some corrugated plastic or fiberboard panels for the roof of the building but hopefully we can do that tomorrow.
The second part of Wednesday we went to drop Christy at Vizag. Vizag is a nice city and they have English movies. Unfortunately, the English movie had already played by the time we got there. Ricky and our driver, Sekhar, still wanted to watch a movie and Crystal and I didn't want to be spoilers, so we saw our first Telegu movie in a theater. Ricky translated, but most of the movie was easy to get, and the rest of the movie was dancing or fighting. It was a fun experience. We did get to go to the beach there before we left this morning and it is a pretty beach. We arrived back in Kakinada around 2, and tonight we are supposed to go to the church building.
