Saturday

We are here. We arrived in India Saturday morning around 3:00 am. Got settled into our hotel at 6 then got up around 9 we got up to go into the office. For breakfast we went down to the restaurant in the hotel. It is not a for star hotel but is very nice. As we went in to eat there was a slight elevation change that I did not see so I fell down on my knees. Way to make a grand entrance. It hurt but I was was able to walk over and get food. That was interesting different kinds of spices. I ordered scrambled eggs thinking that would be safe. They were white with a weird spice. There was French toast that was good. With our stomachs full we started off to the office. We walked many cars stopped to offer a ride. Val said I was getting a lot of attention. It was a our job to stay out of the cars way. This was a small road almost two way. The cars motorbikes autos home to let you know they are there. Once in awhile there was a sidewalk lots of broken stones dirt and water to dodge. Well my foot slipped on the edge of the road and I sprained my foot. I was able to walk so we made it to the office. During the day it hurt so I couldn't walk. Satyaki brought lunch if for us. It was rice and noodles yummy. They had Dinakar's driver drive us home. I stayed off my foot. This morning it is feeling better. Fun first day:) Val had a meeting with Dinakar, for the first few hours I crocheted and listened to Rangers Aprentance. I was tired but kept myself awake. When I got Internet access I wrote few emails. It was nice to feel connected. We don't have Internet in the hotel yet so I'm just writing and will send off on Monday when we are back in the office.

To Finnish off the day we took a nap and then had room service since I couldn't walk. It was actually reasonable priced and good food. Very spicy.
