Adventure in India

Kirstie McDonald —

Team India arrived in Delhi on the 17 July. Our adventure begins.

After a very long flight to finally reach Dehradun was wonderful. The girls are amazingly resilient; even though exhausted it was straight into it. Tours of the school and of course their accomodation. The heat a cool 27 degrees and of course the humidity is high.
It often pours with rain as this is the monsoon season.
We have been to Missouri high up in the clouds; an amazing drive our driver navigated humans, cows, dogs... and eventually we arrived safely.
We walked and walked, so much to see and to take in. It is good to come face to face with cultural difference.
The night market Missouri Mall welcomes us in the evening... shopping begin!!! The girls simply loved every store selling bling. Our lovely friend Monika helped the girls to learn the art of bargaining, you had to be there to appreciate her skills she was tough!!!!
We have had many exciting moments... painting, saree draping, yoga at 0615hrs, going out to famous restaurants, and even 2 of our team spending time in the infirmary.
We still have our trip to the Golden Triangle to look forward to; we head to Agra, Jaipur and Delhi in a few days...excited for whatever awaits us. The girls work hard, are positive and wonderful ambassadors for Rangi Ruru.
