Just some local kids watching us. I love the bicycles with their 'sit up and beg' handlebars and brakes operated by metal rods and levers, no cables here.
This is a Kovil we are rebuilding, the original was wiped out by the Tsunami. Eventually it will be very colourful and intricately painted. However it obviously needs a good orange undercoat to get things started.
When you get a few people arriving for tea you need to get a bucket on the boil. This is a common way of boiling water here, there are electric kettles but they are not always first choice.
