Sadly, no school for Ashu and I. Others have had to make alternative arrangements for transportation, some had their day cut short, but the two of us and Bree were, I believe, the only ones with no school. I blogged in the morning (this is time consuming!) then the three of us ventured out to the Victoria Memorial Hall (http://www.victoriamemorial-cal.org/), another monument to India’s colonial past. Subha and her students had given me a thoughtful list of five places we might go in a reasonable order, and Ashu and I thought perhaps we would try walking our route to school—needless to say between recovering (we are all still quite sleep–deprived) and the heat, we made it to only one place. So here, for the most part, is a visual overview of our day.
