Maureen and her three students outfitted in chudidahs (pants and tunic type outfit). These loose fitting outfits are great for the very hot South Indian Summer heat (about 90 degrees and 65% humidity).

The PT clinic was typical Indian event. Lots of patients, lots of family with patients, lots of curious on lookers and lots of noise. Great stuff.



Eating Mangos has it's own technique in India. Erin got a lesson on the proper way to handle this wonderfully sweet fruit. I does indeed take a village or at least a committee. After lots of explaining, and laughing the mangos do eventually get eaten. Bon Appetit.
There is a definite tradition of hospitality in India and the mission staff takes their responsibility to heart and treats the students and Maureen as honored guests.
