Another great medical class yesterday! I am so fortunate to have this experience. There were very few students, so there was a lot of space, which is always good at the Institute. Since I know my sequence by heart, I get right to work on my own as soon as class starts. Stephanie or Raya will come by every once in a while to check up on me, make sure I’m doing the correct actions, and make suggestions or modifications. When I say it’s a good class, don’t misinterpret that as being easy. It is far from easy. I’m challenged and have to work very hard, but in good ways. I have been given so many tools to work on when I come home to further the healing of my shoulder.<\/p>\n

One of the highlights of my day was, just before observing the beginner’s class, Raya came by while I was typing notes on my iPad and asked me what device I was using, so I took the opportunity to show him my screensaver …<\/p>\n

\"20130821-075758.jpg\"<\/a>He looked at my granddaughter, Maya, on my screen saver a long time and commented on how beautiful she is. I miss the little bugger. A lot. And I hope the new grandson will await my return before his safe arrival!<\/p>\n

I should move onto more Alandi photos before I get homesick …<\/p>\n

You can’t really tell, but here in the parking lot is a traveling shrine on some sort of goods carrier (or Good Scarrier, as I like to call them). A lot of people fix their vehicles up in similar manners.<\/p>\n

\nAnd here are more pictures taken near the river.<\/p>\n

\nAlandi is off the beaten path, and not many non-Indians visit there. During the four hours we were there, I didn’t see any other non-Indians. We were the center of attention and were stared at constantly. People looked as us as though they’d never seen a caucasian before. Those who could speak English would ask where we’re from. America?? In this group, only one person spoke English, but they were overjoyed to be in my picture!<\/p>\n

\"20130821-083532.jpg\"<\/a>Here’s another picture of my group of friends …<\/p>\n

\"20130821-083718.jpg\"<\/a>Such happy, friendly people.<\/p>\n

Tune in tomorrow for more Alandi pictures.<\/p>\n

Today is women’s class at 9:30, then open practice at 4pm, followed by class observation which I’m really enjoying.<\/p>\n

I’ll leave you today with a little head wobble from my friends …<\/p>\n
