The Train
Well I don't think I will take another train ride anytime soon.It was very cramped in the train the only nice thing about it was the lady we got to sit with.She was traveling with her 8 year old twin boys an her older sisters daughter.They were going much farther than us.The kids all just ha A ball,she also was sharing Indian snacks with the kids.They just loved it.Just as the kids were winding down on of the twin boys fell off the top sleeper bunk an must have hit his head on A huge screw,he had A very large hole in his head,it was awfull.It did not bleed much,thank goodness.Some how Flynn told the lady I was A nurse ( she also was A nurse) so I ended up helping out A bit.They called ahead for the next stop for A doctor to come on board.When the doctor came on he gave medicine and she took some ace bandages and what not but for some reason everytime the doctor suggested something she asked me what she should do,so I said listen to the doctor.Everything was fine for the boy the mom decided to ride it out until she was home.Did not sleep at all on the train it was so uncomfortable.Sometime during the night I had Flynn take me to the restroom,well let's just say I am surprised I am not in A hospital dying of some scarry ass disease.That was very hard to use the toilet.I am going to thank my dad for all the years of camping and roughing it and teaching his girls how to hover. LOL!!!! When the sun finally came up and we were entering the outskirts of Kerala it was beautiful,so much water and greenery it was amazing.I have never seen so many coconut and banana trees in my life.

Good morning, I wish that you were able to post pictures so that we can see what you are seeing. Not the injured boy, but the scenery, etc. I am glad that you are all feeling better and can go on more adventures. If you see another elephant you MUST wake Noah up. I would have loved to hear what he had to say about it. We miss all of you, but are excited to hear about what you are doing. Keep us posted.
