Final thoughts?

A few final thoughts about the last 19 days...What will stick longest in my memory? The heat? The food? The unique Indian approach to driving? Probably the enthusiasm of the Indian students, the smells, and the hard work put in by our students. I think that, without fail, they have all put a lot into the 2 weeks at Amala, and have all gained a set of memories that will last long after the tans have faded, and the sari's and lunghi's have been packed away.They have all done themselves proud and deserve a good rest over the next week or two.The final word(?) needs to be to congratulate and thank the group leader (in the words of our host Raja the finest ever group leader) Kim Nicholson, who has put in a tireless shift in the 9 months leading up to the trip, and in the 19 days in India. If it hadn't been for her efforts, the experience the students have had would not have been half of what it has been.
