Here is a picture of Karey, Deb, Kelli and I with some of the women yesterday in the training class: Swathi, Deepanjali, Beena, Natasha, Palavi, Mridula and Akshata. There are 11 women in the class and it has been really fun getting to know all of them throughout these last couple of weeks. They all have very different backgrounds and stories. Akshata just got married a couple of months ago and showed us the pictures from her wedding (there were 800 guests there, and that was considered SMALL!). Natasha lived in Vancouver, Canada for a couple of years while her husband worked there, so she has some interesting stories about her time there and what she learned while living there.
There was a festival in Bangalore this week to mark the beginning of the sugarcane harvest. Because of the festival, some people in the class came dressed up in their nice sarees (a couple are wearing them here).
I am off to Agra early tomorrow morning - can't wait!
