This is Allie here writing from Veer’s home in Beawar. Hi!!! Today was our last day at the Raipura Orphanage and it was very difficult saying goodbye to all of the beautiful children we became friends with. I say “friends,” because within the 3 to 4 days we spent at the orphanage, the kids immediately claimed us as their friends if not, best friends. Anyway, after the very sad goodbye we started our journey to Beawar, where Veer lives. After a very exciting bus ride full of unexpected adventures (losing A/C, watching several animals almost get run over, etc.), we finally arrived at our hotel, the Raj Mahal. They greeted us with flowers and a dot on our forheads (a “cultural tradition,” they said with large welcoming smiles). We are now at Veer’s house about to eat dinner with his wife Blessy, his son Jeremiah, and his beautiful baby girl Joanna and we are having a blast! See everyone very soon. Only 3 days left :):(!!! Sending love to Mom, Dad, Kristin, John, Matthew, and (Chelsea) Ha Bye!!!
