Well Boreing in Badur Tikrey

Anand and I took the bus all the way to Diglipur, North Andaman, which involves an 11 or so hour bus ride, two ferries and a few convoys through Jarawa reserve (one of the aboriginal people groups on the island). The next morning we got up early to bore a well in Badur Tikrey (one of the villages we work with).

However, around 3:00pm when we had drilled nearly 100ft and still didn't hit water we called it quits.
