Just another of the many means of transportation here in India... Shishya School... where we spend our days teaching 40 4-year-olds that don't speak our language!
Another game of football (soccer), a favorite among the boys along with cricket and volleyball.
This is also at the school, the campus is absolutely beautiful.
Frieda McRae... our most kind and generous "mom" while we are here and the founder of Shishya school and orphanage. Here she is modeling a scarf knit by my friend, Rebecca.
A common scene on the streets of India... there is no "private property" here. Street-side vending makes for great sales.
Amanda and I had our first Indian shopping experience the day after we arrived. Here we have just stepped out of the "trial room", sporting our "ready-made" (as opposed to the normal fabric-to-tailor stores) kurtas. The good news is that when we come home, these can also double as costumes for any Old Testament plays.
We have not been dissapointed by the food here. An interesting fact: there is no such thing as curry here. It is a combination of spices... very tasty! This is Raj Kachouli... a mixture of yogurt, chick pea, lentil, mint, chiles, and potato in a shell of fried Cream of Wheat. A peanut stall. Here you see the peanut vendor roasting his peanuts for his pushcart.
The epitome of India...
