Starting Sunday, it's off to Delhi and Varanasi (or Banaras. it has two names) for me. I'll be gone for 10 days. I'm very excited about the trip. Varanasi is especially exciting, because I get to check out where I'll be spending the majority of my independant study month. I found out yesterday that there is a house in Varanasi that exists only for scholars to stay. A room is only a few thousand ruppees a month (about 45 dollars) and has a great cook. The environment should be really nice- very scholarly...
Just to whet your appetite for more pictures (they're coming as soon as I have my camera cord sent to me...), here's one of the whole group stolen from Kiira.
