The City

Today we took a trip into the center of Kolkata and wow is it big! We took a taxi and all simultaneously compared the ride to driving on a one - way street THE WRONG WAY! Haha it wasn't that bad but we were glad to finally get there. Lots of sights and sounds and thousands of people shopping for the lastest trends in clothes and jewelry. We were happy to hear American music and see bottles of diet pepsi - and Lexi was extremely excited when she yelled from the Taxi with excitement "there's an American" - in a place soo foreign to us all it is nice to see things we are familiar with! We are all having more fun as we explore and discover more of the city. After we leave the internet cafe (our new favorite place to spend our spare time) we are going to go look for a hotel to stay in when we finish our time at smile. Hope all is well in the states - we can't wait to see all of you and tell you about our adventures thus far and experiences yet to come:) We love hearing from you all! Lots of Love B
