Farewell to Hyderabad






The last week and a half has flown by. Most of it was spent working on school stuff. We had to do a 30 page paper for our sociology class. Luckily Kevin and I did it together, so that was a lot less work combined. We'll see how it gets graded...

its hard to do papers here because we don't have enough computers to go around and the library is pretty useless. the books are very old and in many cases far too outdated for use. for some infuriating reason you aren't allowed to have notebooks in the library. at the begining we took a few pieces of paper, but as they have the overhead fans on all the time we quit that and started charging through with our notebooks pretending not to understand the security guards. obnixious? perhaps. but until someone can explain to me why on earth no notebooks are allowed i dont have a problem with it.

tomorrow morning at 4:30 am we leave Hyderabad. We'll be flying to Delhi, which is sort of a long flight as far as domestics go. in Delhi we are staying at the YMCA.... but im promised its not like i think it will be. in fact it will be nice. famous last indian words.

I'm excited for the trip and to see North India. This is the time that we'll see the Taj Mahal. Gaj's wife (Mrs. Gaj, as it were) is from Delhi so she is going to show us around.

I will have scant internet access for the next two weeks, so I don't know if I can post or not. I'll be home on the 2nd! So you can call then.

lots of pictures when i get home!
