We are finally here!! We landed in Kolkata last night around 1030. Today we went to church at the church that is affiliated with the hospital. It has been good to reunite with some people we met last year as well as meet new people. Everyone has been very welcoming and friendly.
The hospital was finally able purchase land for their college of nursing, which is a miracle. Apparently land is incredibly hard to purchase in Kolkata. Today, we were able to join some of the hospital staff in dedicating the property. This provided us not only with the opportunity to see the property, but also the outskirts of the city of Kolkata.
The city is such an experience. All of the colors and smells and sounds are so vibrant. The traffic is unbelievable.
We are all tired and jet lagged right now, but incredibly excited to be here. Everyone is doing well and we are all very excited to start in the hospital tomorrow.
