Weather Report:  No surprise, it was another hot day.  It tried to rain in the afternoon but it did not come till the evening and it only rained for a little bit.

Days of rain: 8 of 10. 

Praying a blessing over the couple.

Today we traveled about an hour times out to go to another wedding.  The farther of the groom is a pastor that is friends with Prakash.  I am tome that the farther was very insistent with Prakash that I come to his son's wedding.  We had the time so we went.  It was another beautiful Indian wedding.  Like before I now nothing about the couple.  I sat up front and when everyone was praying a blessing over the couple, once again, I joined in.  What was different this time was that right after the ceremony the couple left to go get changed.  

Cutting of the cake.

While they changed I spoke a few words about my hopes and prayers for the marriage.  Prakash spoke after me and then we waited for the couple to come back.  When they came back it was time to cut the cake.  It seemed strange to me but I "helped" cut the cake.  I then feed both the bride and groom.  It was wired but it was nice.  After that it was time for us to eat lunch.  Once again I stuck with the foods that were there that had very little to no spice which wasn't much.

Boats in the harbor.

After eating we left.  We were close to the shore line so on the way home we stopped at a harbor.  Along the route was fish hatcheries and people laying fish out to dry.  There were big piles of dried fish all along the route.  The harbor is along a river that enters the sea.  This was wired at the same time was not.  We tend to make our sea harbors along the ocean coast but we make sure they are safe for the boats.  For them the safe place for the boats was in land a little bit.  There the boats are safe from the crashing seas.  The smell her was very

different than at home.  At home you smell the salt water her you smell something.  I not sure what the smell is but what I do know is that it smells really bad.  After that we started to
home and stopped to do a little shopping along the way since we would be going through a large town.  Along the way it would try to rain on us and at one point it did but it might of only lasted 5 minutes if that.

Not sure what the plan is for tomorrow but Prakash is asking for prayer.  They have identified 3 to 4 new areas in need of a bore well but he does not currently have the funds to drill them.  He asks for prayers (and possibly a donation or two or three) that they will get the funds to help the people get clean water.
