week 2: taj mahal and faridabad
8 hrs sideways in the back of a van to agra and the taj mahal. it's Rs. 750 for foreignors and about Rs. 20 for indians. such a huge difference. the taj mahal is gorgeous, but def got sunstroke from the light. the sun is much stronger. arrived in faridabad (a city about 30 km south of the center of delhi) and was supposed to go to my site, but apparently their not sure when i will go, so i am in limbo at the local coordinator's apartment. there are 2 other american girls there which is nice b/c then it is not quite as lonely. faridabad is much quieter. i went to the girl's orphanage w/ them (ahhh children!) and taught them vowels. so strange to be surrounded by so many children. i think this deters me more from having children:) hope everyone is well

lol won't you be surrounded by children @ the school you'll be working at too??

You knew what you were getting into...no excuses. You're going to love children by the time you finish this trip.
