Time for Goodbies in India. Saying goodbye to Pritvi at the orphanage yesterday was the hardest. He was clearly hurt that I was leaving. I wanted to say that I would miss him, but was afraid that preferential treatment would hurt the others feelings and possibly get him bullied. So I said nothing. He was very sullen all lesson, and when we went to leave he ran to to gate to wave me off. Really heart wrenching, I hate that I am also leaving him, like almost everyone else in his life. I'd like to write to him, but again afraid that preferential treatment will cause upset.
The school today was much easier. the kids are too young to work out what was going on so we just had fun colouring in stuff. I have to confess my mind is not on the job today. In full worry about flights mode. Still got some nice pics, including our young love birds (Pooja and Ramesh - they are so cute).
Ooo forgot to write about our Dandia party. We all got dressed up and Fiona taught us Dandia dancing. Was really good fun, and I enjoyed looking like a girl for once (I know very unlike me).
And onwards to Beijing then Mongolia. Looking forward to seeing Rosie, and hopefully the end of curry (not that I have high hopes for mongolian food). Lets hope I don't eat horse.
