~*India*~

In the beginning on February Nate got a chance to go to Bangelore India for a business trip. He has always wanted to go to India and so he was very excited about it! (as was I, for him) He was only there for 4 days with 2 days of flying and a complete time change (night for us is morning in India). He had a nice time though, and got one day to check out the streets and shops around Bangelore.  They had a driver who drove them to shops all day for just 50 cents... He said it was quite a culture shock, the streets are really trashed, and there were alot of poor people/poor living conditions. One day he said he saw a little boy who looked 5 years old carrying his 2 year old brother on his back. (alone) Crazy! The driving was a little chaotic ( think major traffic, with cars, ricshaws, and motorcycles going in all different directions with everyone with their hands on their horns.) He also said that most of the people are very nice and serving. While at his hotel, he had someone checking in on him about every 30 minutes seeing if he needed anything! He spent most days at Microsoft in Bangelore working with his business partners from around the world. After 4 days he was ready to come home but the time change and 21 hour flight was a little difficult. Here are a few pics! He didn't take the camera but these are from a coworker he was hanging out with.

This is what happens when your trying to adjust to a different time zone ( he is snoozing, not reading)
