rain

racing home by bike after a lecture, i felt the first raindrops since i have been in india.  after all the excitement, it never properly rained, but the clouds passed right on by.

marissa, ida, and i dressed up in sarees and went to the palace for tea. no big deal.

here we all are at the palace!
