Hey Hey Everyone!
Since the last post more than not of us have been rather sick with the altitude and other maladies. Things at SECMOL have been going great, playing games and getting to know the students better. Today we came into Leh around 10 and visited the Tibetan Children's Village (tibetchild.org). It's a very beautiful clean campus they have set up to house, and educate ~2000 children in family units of 20-25. The students range in age from barely older that toddlers to high school age. Many are orphans or their parents just cant provide for them. The village also accepts Ladakhi students from the surrounding area.
We've also visited several monastaries and Bhuddist temples. In a few days we are leaving SECMOL to go treking in the mountains.
Love and sunshine from the Himalayas!
