नमस्ते, ग्रीटिंग्स फ्रॉम जबलपुर।
(Nameste, greetings from Jabalpur!)
We flew into Jabalpur, India yesterday and were greeted warmly (as you can see from the picture)!
The last couple of days we have been getting to know Japalpur, India. Life in Jabalpur is a little slower than Dehli. It feels like the "midwest" of India. Yesterday we went to explore a river that runs through town. It is interesting because it is surrounded by cliffs of marble. Because it's a large tourist attraction there are guided boat rides along the river.
Today we spent time at a girls-home that David Lall started here in Jabalpur. The girls are all under 18 and still in school. Our group split up to style hair and paint nails (except Justin, who refused to take part in such "girly" activities). Most of the girls spoke a little English and were able to joke around and chat. They sang and danced for us, then made us a curry lunch.
hey make sure that you tell David to take you to the chinese food place in Jabalpur. It is some of the best food i ate in India...imagine that. Looks like you guys are having a great time. Hope the Lord continues to teach you and speak to you as you are there. Maybe sometime when you are there I can talk with you guys on Skype. Mercedes and I are praying for you
ReplyDeleteJabalpur is a lovely place and the laid back life is a blessing. It is also one of the best educational centres in India.. try and study that a bit. Agree with Zac.. you will get some of the best Indian Chinese in Jabalpur at Kinglee's..
