Blogging is totally a new thing for me. I just commented on the one about high speed internet, so now I'm at your most recent posting, so am finally catching up to you. That jutho thing is a drag! There was that way cool solar eclipse today, and Hindu women in India are not to go out to see it, according to their culture/religion, especially if they're pregnant because they're told that seeing it may result in the baby being blind or having a cleft lip once it's born. I imagine there are a lot more restrictions than that for pregnant Hindu women (like jutho, only for 9 months!!). You are definitely having some cool adventures and helping people at the same time. That's the best vacation ever.
