Waiting
ArrivingThey have arrived with 13,348 photos between the fourteen travelers (prize goes to Annie! - 2,371 pictures). Because they could not upload images in Kerala, we will now be repopulating the blog with the actual pictures of their travels. So check back over the next few days as the images and links change.

Out of Touch - But On Our Minds
Backwater Tour of Vembanad Lake
The students are without access to the internet, and so cannot post for the time being. They are on a houseboat taking a two night backwater tour, after which they will fly to Mumbai where they will spend the night before flying home on Saturday. Please join us for their presentation next Wednesday night, 7:00PM in the Maverick Room at Riverdale High School.

From the "Elders"
Dear Family and Friends,
Transition time! We are finished with our stay at Hope House. We will be dedicating the completed addition to the Women's Empowerment Center this morning and immediately leave for the Backwaters for a day and night of "chilling out" prior to the hustle of travel, in India.
We wanted to let all of you know what a wonderful group of teenagers are traveling with us. As you may know, travel is a good indicator of character and all of them are GREAT travelers! Patient, helpful and ready to hurry up and wait. Their ability to derive awe and wonderment from India is a joy to watch and experience. They are respectful and fun loving. Daisy has commented often that this group is very cohesive and well mannered. She has been able to spend time separately conversing with each one of them. She enjoys them together and individually. We applaud your kids!
Perhaps you'll receive a blog at one of the airports during one of our layovers. We look forward to sharing our experiences with all of you and will be presenting a community meeting on Wednesday, 12/16 at 7:00pm RHS.
Please feel free to attend!
Namaste, Susie and Dan
