Greetings from warm and sunny Hyderabad! We arrived in India this morning (the 17th) at 3:00 am. Flights went tiringly well, although customs in Hyderabad were challenging (it took almost 1 1/2 hours). So, by the time we got to Sam & Becca's it was 5:30. After a wonderful nap in a comfortable bed we had a very American breakfast of pancakes, eggs, & sausage. We got to try dragon fruit for the first time- it was quite tasty. We sat in the courtyard for a bit and the sun and breeze made for a very balmy place.
After breakfast we visited a small school that Sam holds in the top floor of his home. There are 17 children total. We sang some songs for them and passed out candy canes.
This afternoon we visited the Golconda Fort right here in Hyderabad. It's a gigantic fort that was built in the 15th century by a Persian king. From the top you can see the whole city of Hyderabad, up to 12 km away! The architecture was amazing, especially considering it was built from the top of the hill to the bottom.
Exhausted in Dubai- with 4 hr flight to come!
