Hello From a very rainy and cold Darjeeling today!!!
Happy easter to everyone by the way!!! And happy Holy!! I didn't see any colour's been thrown anywhere today why??? I know we celebrated it a week early but saying that..... It is a prominent Nepali and Tiebet community over here so that way be why!!! Holy day is only for Hindu's just answered my own question havent i really!! lol But gave you a little education in the meantime!! lol
Well We had a day off today no school and know orphanage so had the day to ourself!! We went to the zoo this morning!! Not the same since I have been to Africa it is just not exciting!!! The animals looked really sad in there small cages and really bored!! Wanted to let them out but didnt think it would be a good idea considering some of these animals are bears, leopards ect lol they may eat me!!! ARR!! saying that the black bear could have eat us us there us literally a small moat between us!! No fence except one that i could have climbed over!!! If he wanted to he could have had me and Leigh for lunch arr!!! But he decided against it luckily!! There was some amazing animals there though!!! Saw red panda, snow leopards and ordinary leopards which i didnt see in Africa good damn it!! lol!! Went to the Himalaya mountain measeum which was intresting!! Saw lots of people that had lost there live trying to climb it why????
It was thundering when we where at the zoo!!! We walked back for lunch at home!! Just got it back and god went to the toliet or threw a bucket from the sky!! Never seen rain like it then there was thunder and then ...... Hale!!! I know i am in India!!! That lasted for 5 hours ish!! I can now go and use the internet and not get soaked!! Soo didnt really do much this afternoon except look out the window after the rain though it was amazing!!! Clouds covering some of darjeeling but could still see the mountains from my bedroom window wow!!! I hope the weather is better tomorrow please!!!!!
Well finished my first week of teaching and have loved it although I am changing schools!!! The school i am at, at the moment is a private school one of the better ones in Darjeeling and i am teaching Enviromental studies not english as the children already speak english as there first language at school!! I wanted to come to England to teach underprivileged children english which I am not doing as they are already well educated!! I loved the school and the pupils but it is just not as basic and the children dont need my help!!! So on Monday I am starting at leighs school which is very basic!! Three classrooms in one building, no pens for every child ect kind of thing i know there I can make a big difference!!! (Hopefully)
I am going out to one of the teachers for lunch tomorrow afternoon for lunch so should be intresting as I am leaving there school don't think they know yet either!!! Really sweet of them to ask me though so I am still going!!! I will keep ya updated.....
I am loving Darjeeling starting to feel like home for me for the next two months I am definatly going to miss is loads when I leave!!! I wont be able to see the mountains every morning!!! Although I wont miss feeling like a giant they are all so tiny even the men!!!
Right better go tea will be ready in a half an hour and its cold in this internet cafe!!!
So lunch for Sarah with the teachers tomorrow and then on Saturday getting up early and going to tiger hill (weather permitting) and then hiking back down sooo the day i suppose to be eating lots of chocolate I am going to be hiking up a mountain!!! Much better for me though!!
By the way I have found easter eggs in darjeeling in a bakury so bought me and Leigh one the other day!! Not half as good as cadbury's though!! They tasted quite stale actually nice!! lol
Another mile stone I now drink green tea I really like it actually!!! So Green tea and Darjeeling stock up for when i get home lol!!
Lots of love and hugs
