Day 1

We landed in India around 2 in the morning, then met our new friend Pastor John who took us back to our hotel. We all went to bed around 5. We got to sleep for about 3 hours then woke up and had a nice breakfast at our hotel. After breakfast, we got in our vans and drove to the market. The one major difference about India so far is definitely the driving. They drive on the opposite side of the road, with no lanes and you can't count 3 seconds between each honk. We exchanged our money and then went into the market and bought tons of really cool things. Most of us discovered our new talent of bargaining. After that, we drove about an hour to meet some of the kids we will be with this week. We went to the girls home and were instantly greeted by little smiling faces. The girls sang us a welcoming song and we danced and just hung out with them. They gave all of us little roses for Valentine's Day. After that we went to a very good dinner at an Indian restaurant and tried very different tasting foods.  But we all enjoyed the experience and the time with our awesome team. We were all so exhausted and most of us fell asleep on the long car ride home. I am so thankful for this group of people and can't wait to see what God has in store for this week!
