A slight schedule adjustment today but the team adapted and had great attitudes. The boat ride along the Ganges River was longer than usual. Our poor boat man was exhausted after almost two hours of rowing us around. We observed many Hindu worshipers bathing in the river, celebrating Shiva's birthday, and honoring their Hindu faith. It was a fascinating journey along the Ganges River. Dinner was the best so far and now we are back in crazy traffic driving to the boys home in Allahabad. It is about a two hour drive so I expect many attempts at napping. Although I don't anticipate much success because if it isn't a honking horn it will be the bumpy roads that keep you from nap time.

Pastor Varughese said the boys are so excited and are all allowed to stay up until our arrival! I think it will be a rather tired first greeting, but the real fun will begin tomorrow. As I mentioned before, the roads are bumpy and the driving is crazy, and so to not risk car sickness I will finish today's entry. Good night and thank you for the prayers.
