Good night all

Or for some it will be good morning .. Well my son and girlfriend left early this morning. his backpack weighed a ton and we had to help him on with his boots but he seemed to think he was going to manage. The treks don't start till a weeks time so he has time to see how he gets on .. It has been wonderful to have this time with him and his girlfriend. I am so honoured that he wants to spend time with us and is so open to love and care .. and is such a gentle soul yet so so adventurous .. He is somewhat popular here in India as they think he looks like a Bollywood star so wont be short of support wherever he goes!

And a lovely end to the day with my Malayalam teacher Sona and her family.. This is supposed to be a fast day but they gave me fried banana and coconut roll. I have not told Mr A this yet!!
