Feeling the heat . . .

Oh we are feeling stressed. There is so much to do and so little time. We thought we were doing good but we suddenly realized just what all there is to still do. We are trying to get our game plan down. We've got brochures, we've got maps, we've got dates and time, and most of all--we've got SPIRIT!

So, after another quick team pep rally, we decided to head to the international grocery today. We talked with a local, named Padma, who has moved to our beautiful city of Columbus all the way from India. She agreed to guide us through the grocery and educate us on the many unique items available in the store. We got some interesting videos of her explaining what certain things were, their medicinal purposes, and the cultural and religious meaning of pieces of art on the wall. We spent about two hours at the store getting to know her and learning about her culture. It was a really interesting event. In fact, it was an unexpected and memorable experience that we will not soon forget.
