Monday

L:

We spent the first half of Monday at the medical clinic. Tryana and Kalysta had to be tested for TB. Now we’re all praying that the five children over age two get negative results when we go back to have them checked.

After lunch and naps, we headed to the pool at our hotel. T & K had a blast! They had been fascinated the day before when we had walked down to check out the pool area, but it had taken a little coaxing to get them to touch the water. They were pretty brave this time.

There are tons of places to walk to around the hotel. After dinner, we went to a Bata store (Indian shoe company) so that Nick could buy two pairs of sandals. He bought some when he was in India almost twenty years ago and has been wanting new ones for a long time.

Our room is a suite at this hotel. We’re definitely appreciating the extra room since there are six of us. T & K are sharing their own bed here.
