We’re on a journey. So much has happened in the last 24 hours.
First the sunset taken in my 5 minute window of opportunity near Bagdad. Check
out the mountains below.
Then after landing in Dubai
and spending quality time there, In the airport that acts like a city we
arrived in Chennai at 4AM in the morning to be warmly welcomed, and blessed
with decorations. Look how many greeters were there to meet us so early in the morning.
Only 8 hours in the country
we are rested have successfully ventured to the closest ATM machine.
Today only 24 hours later
was very special with lots of laughs. What a treat to visit Thiru an original
member of the Rotary Club when the distributions first came to Chennai. He was
a friend of Murray Dryden so long ago and has attended a distribution every
year since.
Winding our way, no slogging
our way through the traffic, we witnessed a well oiled machine of happy people
working in the packing facility. Your donations service the cottage industry here and some 250 families gain employment
from making all the items in the bedkit.
We even took a
hand at trying to pack a kit, however we decided our strength was in
distributing them to the children.
