Jo ventured to the church this morning with Abbie. It was a modern service held at the British Embassy School and we enjoyed it. Pragya, Jo, Amrit and Abbie went for lunch in Pizza Hut (how common) and then went window shopping in a big mall. It was just like being in England (: The weather was quite unsettled today - it's been overcast all day...

We've had a busy couple of days. We both went on the medical bus yesterday morning. There were a lot of people with fevers, stomach bugs, coughs and colds coming for treatment, mainly caued by poor diet and the heat.

Day 17 & 18
April 28, 2008 - Delhi, India
We had a well deserved lie-in yesterday morning, before visiting a slum area of Delhi to help vaccinate children under 5 against Polio. It was physically and mentally draining due to the heat and the immense poverty that we experienced. On the other hand, we went to MacDonalds for lunch...it was the nicest McMeal Pragya has ever tasted, so...
