Safe Arrival in India

All is well here. Students and faculty arrived well and on time at Chennai Airpor. Ross welcomed them and brought them back to College Guesthouse, where they arrived at 4 am. Thulasi welcomed them and oriented them to their rooms.

At 9 am we all had breakfast together, gathered for a check-in and welcome and went over some logistics. Then we had a nice walk to the visitor center, looked at the Auroville exhibition, had a great healthy meal, and students were able to go into two shops to pick up some clothing.

Afternoon was downtime, assigning bicycles, orientation to college guesthouse and another check-in. They all did well and everybody was able to stay awake for the whole day. In the evening we went to Center Guest House to have dinner and by 8 pm everyone was ready to go to bed.

Today we willl have deeper introductions and a yoga session in the afternoon. Tomorrow, Ross takes over for a 3 day Auroville intro.

So everyone has arrived well and safely in their home base for the next three months: Mother India.
