Just Call me Domingo Montoya

Soooo...every night at dinner the boys tell Carl about our day. This is one of the best parts about being here because at home Carl was well, here, so obviously not at the dinner table.

Last night the boys told him all about our school projects, leaf collecting, and swimming. I felt they were leaving out an important event of the day so I pressed them a little about our lunch at the pool. Suddenly both of their faces lit up as they remembered to tell their dad about the six fingered man who served them their lunch.

Yep.

People in India LOVE children. Everyone is always bending down and talking to them and patting them on the heads. Yesterday at the pool, our waiter was no exception. What was an exception was that he thought that it would be fun to show the boys his extra thumb. And you know what? They loved it. They were all over it. It was the most exciting thing that happened to them all day.

I, however, much like Domingo, am now haunted by the image.
