Gujarat

We arrived in Gujarat in on a Saturday morning. The Indian airline was comfy – great food. The city is called Vadodara, but everyone calls it by it's former name, Baroda. Baroda has a small airport with tight security. Our host teachers were waiting outside to greet us with flowers. Kashmira was the woman I had been corresponding with through email. Since I was in Ghana during the planning, I allowed my fellow teacher Chris to choose the hotel. It was pretty nice. Very nice staff. The schedule that Kashmira planned for us was packed with activity. We were set to visit Gandhi’s first ashram in Ahmedabad early on Sunday morning. The next day we were off.
