12 people. 1 rickshaw. no big deal.

This morning was our first day of lecture.  That was cool.  After lunch we sat around for a long time and talked about how we needed to exchange money and buy some supplies at Pick and Pack (aka the convenience store) down the street.  .......four hours later we finally headed out to the bank.  We decided to go by auto rickshaw.  So naturally we piled 20 people into two rickshaws.  Naturally.

This is pretty much what they look like.  I think there were 12 people in ours.  Maybe.  Anyway, it was a lot of people in a tiny space.
We arrived at the bank safely, although I was kind of scared we were going to lose Katie, because she was barely inside.  But we made it.  It took forever to exchange all our money.  No surprises there.  So we were just chilling at the bank for a good hour and a half.  Maybe longer.  Fun fun.  Then we went for ice cream!  :)  Then we went to the store to get some shampoo and soap.  AND SPRITE.  I've really missed soft drinks the past few days, so that was nice.  And that's pretty much the day!
