The beauty of water
Splish splash
Waking up this morning was not too fun after such an eventful and late ride home, but you can’t really come up with an excuse to miss church, especially when three other people are going with you. The best part of the mass is how the priest connects the reading to the Indian culture we are in. The message is the same, however the approach he takes is very different from that in the states. After church we ventured on the reservoir hike again. This time it went a lot faster, but we almost got caught on the hike. We aren’t exactly welcome there, but if we walk next to the falling tree and no one hears, were we really there? The refreshing water was well needed after the car ride home yesterday. Right after we got out we had to get out of sight of the officials checking the water and we ate snacks and took a nap behind the bushes. The rest of the day was very relaxed. We went to the market again and got groceries. The group was getting a little heated about certain aspects going on in the house, but I think (mostly hope) everything is worked out for the moment. Our first day in the crèches is tomorrow. I am excited to see the kids, as well as see the exact work we are doing. With the first week in the bag, I could not be more ecstatic for the next seven.
