It has been a really easy week. We had the day off yesterday for Pongal. It is kind of like Thanksgiving where they bless all of the old and new crops for the year and eat lots of rice and sugar cane. I hear that they decorate their cows today too and have cow runs. We always have Thursday and Fridays off too, so I am not sure what we are going to do today. Maybe lay out on the roof of our Hostel…. rough life! We are going to go to Bangalore this weekend. We could have gone early- but it is a lot more fun to travel together. Other than that there is not much to say. We had an international party in our room on Tuesday night to say goodbye to the boy from Tasmania. We also had to send our Malaysian friend home on Sunday. It is going to be really sad to see everyone else go before we do. I think I might have to make a trip to see some of them! I have come down with a little cold. It isn’t too bad though. Really that is about all I have this time….I will let you know how our trip goes.
