I have been craving citrus lately - probably because of the cold I had earlier this week. They have started giving us bananas at breakfast- which has been very nice. Since they have a thick skin- they are safe for us to eat. Most fresh fruits and vegetables we can't have. Well, I went to a vegetable shop yesterday and they had some key limes so I bought five (They were a penny apiece!) so I could make some lime-aid. Well, I was listening to Buena Vista Social Club and so as I was shaking up my water bottle with lime wedges and sugar in it- I started dancing around my room to the music. It all seemed a bit of a surreal thing to be doing in India.

Needs more rum...
I thought of you yesterday as I had lime-aid with my lunch. I felt completely American: the organic, water/sugar based lime drink, from a local Whole Foods Market, cost about $2.25 and only contained 10% juice! :)
Labor Day Weekend - We Americans live such a different life from most of the world and don't even realize how fortuante we are. Glad you are having this experience to make you wiser in many ways. We will miss you this weekend on the mountain with Michael!
There's never a wrong place to shake a lime aid and dance!
