Back to the hills

We had another hectic week at work from Monday – Thursday which included a teachers v students cricket match. This was the first such match to be organised and there was quite a big build up in the schools with special practices and the students wanting to talk about little else in lessons! A cricket academy very kindly donated their grounds and some uniforms for the teams and there was a great atmosphere at the grounds. The majority of the volunteers spectating however were from mainland Europe or America so had no idea what was going on or who was winning.

Leaving Kolkata, arriving in Bangkok

Our last week in Kolkata was predictably a bit hectic. We had several loose ends to try and tie up and Drew had to offer to finish a few of the IT projects he was involved in remotely (it's pretty amazing that this is possible!) A new website is in the pipeline, which is quite exciting.
