Tommorrow we leave Varanasi by train for Bodhgaya, the place that the Buddah is said to have reached enlightenment. The city now offers many temples to visit or meditate at, as well as a descendant of the very same bodhi tree the Buddah sat under thousands of years ago. But before we leave Varanasi we will enjoy an evening boat ride up the Ganges to eat dinner and watch hundreds of lotus flower candles float down the river, viewing the people as they sing, dance and pray in this sacred city. Varanasi has been an impressive experience, from learning local trades and customs to meeting amazing people in many feilds. Witnessing the cremations at the Ghats has been an unexplainable experience, as has volunteering at an after school program for kids in the red light district. We even attended a real Indian wedding!
