Today was a good, restful day. It was very stormy, with strong winds and a heavy downpour of rain. Due to the bad weather, we could not go out and visit the slum schools, but hopefully we can when come back to Delhi before we fly home.
After having a delicious egg breakfast served by Nana Gee, we had a fascinating discussion with Ramesh, ranging from topics to the history of the Sikh religion to how COI was first started to the influence of the Persian language on Hindi. After that, Vijay attempted to teach Edwin and I how to play cricket. After multiple swings, I finally got the hang of the cricket bat, but no matter how many times I pitched, I just couldn't get it.
After lunch, we headed into central Delhi to exchange our money and pick up a few more things before we head up into the much more remote regions in Uttaranchal. Along the way, I had a blast soaking in the uniquely Indian landscape and traffic (see pictures above and below.)
Later this evening, Maxwell Goerge and his dear wife Della came by to visit us. Max had been our translator on our last trip, and he is an excellent friend and brother in Christ. He has agreed to come with us to translate again, and his wife may join us later on.
