WE MADE IT! FINALLY! AFTER 6 MONTHS OF TENSION, TEARS, FEARS, ANXIETY, PRAYERS, NEEDS, PEOPLE LEAVING US...WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE THE HOPE HOME CALCUTTA FAMILY TO THE SEA BEACH AT DIGHA (A FOUR HOUR TRAIN RIDE FROM CALCUTTA) ON FRIDAY AND RETURNED ON SATURDAY EVENING. AND MY, HOW EVERYONE ENJOYED...ALL THE PENT UP EMOTIONS WERE RELEASED AS THE KIDS AND GROWN UPS DASHED ONTO THE ROARING WAVES OF THE BAY OF BENGAL! FRIDAY WAS EXCELLENT AND WE WERE ABLE TO GO TO THE WATERS TWICE - BEFORE AND AFTER LUNCH. SATURDAY MORNING WAS HIGH TIDE DUE TO THE FULL MOON AND THE SEA WATERS CAME UP TO THE BOULDERS. THERE WAS A MINOR ACCIDENT...AS DEV, NAMITA (COOK), SUMILA AND RUTH WAS PUSHED AGAINST THE BOULDERS BY ONE OF THE NASTY WAVES WHICH CAME UP SUDDENLY!! JUST SOME MINOR BRUISES BUT THEN, WHO CARES FOR A FEW CUTS AND WOUNDS WHEN COMPARED TO THE JOY THAT THE SEA BROUGHT FOR ALL OF US...AND YES, WE DID ENJOY THE BONDING AND TIME OF DEVOTION WHILE IN DIGHA...
