I have no idea what today will hold...
(The below was written at the end of the day, the above at the beginning)
Today it has been murky, cold, rainy - very untypical of my time here so far. Ashok did turn up in the end this morning, 45 minutes after he said he would. He had to go to hospital to see someone, so gave me to another guy who took me to a village and I saw a medical worker. He didn't really know what to do with me though, we rode on his motorbike for ages. Then he just took me home. Ashok said he'd take me to a village then rejoin me after he'd visited the hospital. Obviously there was some kind of communication breakdown - somewhere, either between Indians or between languages - I've learned that both are equally likely.
Came home - had my sandwiches that Reena made for me, they were very nice. Then I was told it was time for lunch! Argh! All the Indians seem to do is eat! I can't deal with it! I am always full and never hungry - so don't enjoy the food! The nicest thing I've had was the Butter Naan at a restaurant, the rest has sent my digestive system crazy. Oh! to eat college food again!
I can't tell you how much I look forward to walking out at Heathrow to cool, crisp British air. I could go on and on....and on and on...
Next we went to a little girls party, turning 3 years old. Very surreal, 20 people in a small room. Sam told a story. We had food. That was it. Felt a little like a lemon!
The Bible study was good, Oliver is getting closer to Christ, I must pray for him, always. It rained heavily this evening.
I am now not speaking at Nijaat tomorrow, a nice relief. Ever changing India cotinues to be ever changing.
