House visits

On the Sunday before Jen flew out to Bangalore all the brothers and sisters were asking if they could have us to visit their houses for a meal. They suddenly realised they had no time and so we ended up visiting 2 houses in one day, which isn't such a good idea when your translator arrives 2 hours late.

Anyways, we had a lovely meal at Sister Chompa's who took the day off work to make sure that we could visit. Amazing, although I guess I would do the same if possible back home! Then we raced to get the train to Canning to visit Susanta and Aparna.

It was the most packed train I've ever been on. Sister Chompa's sister in law had given Jen 3 eggs as a parting gift...anyways, by the end of the trip, Jen had 3 eggs in her bad ready for scrambling.

At Canning, we had time for a reading on the rooftop and time to eat some delicious fried rice cooked by Aparna before racing back to the flat as mother was terribly unwell and wes wasn't up to much either as he had hurt his leg and needed to rest it up, and at the same time was taking pills for high bloodpressure. Besides which, Jen had to pack for leaving the next morning at 7 for Bangalore.
