So, we are nearing the end of week two now, and the time is just flying by (sorta). Since our last post we have learnt how to do laundry (outside on the cement), taken our first of many rickshaw rides, learnt some indian dance moves, gone to a birthday party, been gawked at like there's no tomorrow (we've created a rating scale too), gone to a random couples home for tea, watched many cricket matches, ate goat that was hanging fully intact from a roadside stand (and covered in flies), reversed down a highway in traffic because we missed our turn, made roti (the indian flatbread), and learnt to count to ten in marathi!!!! Its been quite the adventure so far and each day brings something new, not that its always the most hygenic! We've been at the orphanage most days so far, and are getting to know more about the kids and their backgrounds so its been super interesting but also quite the reality check. So far we've still kept healthy, which is quite surprising and a blessing considering some of the things we have eaten. We love you and miss you all!!!!!!!! 2 weeks down, 23 to go!
