On the Road (Plane) Again

Well here we sit at Kuala Lumpur waiting for our connecting flight back to Chennai.

What are we doing here? - well a small window of opportunity opened up that allowed us to see the 12 Std girls (aka Year 12 girls in Oz) before their final Public Exams and then their disappearance back to their villages or hopefully for some, tertiary studies.

When the window opened both IW and AM grabbed it and ripped it wide open. After consultation with the Principal and Uniting World it was agreed that we would come back for a couple of weeks.

We hope it has been kept a secret from our Hostel girls so we can surprise them. We don't know how successful this has been as we received an email from one of the day students from the Orchestra telling us that when they were practicing on Tuesday (in the house where we stayed) the groundsman came in and told them to leave as they had to get the house ready for the return of Uncle and Aunty (AM and IW).

They have assured us that they won't tell the Hostel girls so we will wait and see.

We will arrive at the school at about 11:00 Saturday night and hopefully slip in unnoticed (by the girls). Then we will just walk down and meet them when they are boarding the bus to go to Church on Sunday morning.

Well that's the plan, so stay tuned to see how it works out.

Bye for now.

AM and his editorial assistant IW.
