India! part one:

So it's day four of my Indian adventure! I think this is going to take a lot of adjusting to. Our first day here we went shopping at a local market for Punjabis to wear during ministry. It was a lot like playing dress up in the middle of a circus. But it was a lot of fun. I learned how to haggle! Wearing punjabis is like wearing your pajamas all day. I just might have to wear them all the time when I get back to America... So be prepared. To get from place to place most of the time we have to take a rickshaw pulled by a little old man on a bicycle and sometimes we have to fit 3 people on one! Poor poor guy. Don't worry, we gave him a tip. Indians sure know how to party. We've seen an engagement parade in the streets so far! and they ALWAYS shoot off fireworks. Almost every night! It's basically one big party here. We went to this Advent Christmas party the other day and had worship, a talent show, gift exchange and FOOD. The food here is soo good. A little spicy, but oh so good.
It's so surreal to thing that I'm in India! I'm half a world away from most of ya'll! Isnt that weird??? I can't even believe it. ahh!
