Today, we went to NID :)

Another long night of not sleeping much ended up in a late trip round the campus with the camera for a play.
I was hoping for a better nights sleep as I knew we had to get up early to get to NID. Fortunately there is a free bus that runs the 30km between the campuses - so I was saved from another tuk tuk ride for a while :)

As we arrived at NID, the sudden change in atmosphere is immeasurable. Not 3 feet from the gate to the campus cars whiz past, tuk tuks honk, shouts can be heard, motorbikes rev their engines, the chaos is imaginable...you step past the gates and you are in a tranquil environment, peacocks wander past, students laugh the noise level drops and calm takes over.

We were shown around the facilities, and met several students and members of staff - and given our timetable, which makes the number of days here seem a lot shorter than the time span that I have been imagining.

The timetable includes day trips out, museum trips and cultural walks, along with the more course based days, reviews, work discussions and the such.

After getting our GBP changed to Rupees, we waited for the uni bus to take us back....which we were told was at 5pm, we soon found out it was at 7, so Hannah, Adam and I jumped into a tuk tuk for another interesting experience on the Indian roads.

Tonight, we have been invited to a party, and to film night, lucky the film starts at 10pm and the party at 12am, so time for both!

I am missing everyone at home. Love you all!

The aftermath of celebrations, instead of confetti they use flowers!

Cows literally wander across the roads, nap in the roads, they rule the roads!

Another example of the cows!
