So... We’ve been a bit tired on this side of globe.  I don’t know that we have  ever experienced jet lag to this extent before.  Fortunately, I think we have finally managed to overcome it.  All of you who have been waiting patiently on an update, thanks.  You can expect much more frequent postings from here on out.

It has been so good to see our Pals, and the boys too!  I don't know that we have allowed them to stay on schedule though.  Needless to say, we aren't the only ones on the team who have been a little tired.  We have wrestled with the boys, made forts, dyed Easter eggs, and even watched American Idol.  I’m afraid to admit that their exhaustion is partly our doing. 

Speaking of Easter, we were able to go to a sunrise service this morning in a very nice park here in the city.  It was neat to experience Easter among national believers.  We all wore South Asian garb in an attempt to fit in as much as possible.  Which proved to be a difficult task with all that was going on in the park while we were there - even at 6 o’clock in the morning.  Included in the festivities were marching bands, all sorts of worshipers, and exercisers of all ages and shapes.

Up to this point, we have experienced quite a bit.  We have been exposed to numerous forms of South Asian food and coffee, rickshaws [auto and not], one of the finest metros in the world, traffic like nowhere else, tons of people, Hindu temples, Indian cricket and ultimate frisbee, and many hours of acquisition training.  These things may have added to our lag.

Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts in spite of your lack of information.  Please remember us as you talk to the Father, asking that we will transition and acclimate well, learn the language quickly, and thrive not merely survive in this culture.
