After breakfast, Roma and today, Rosanna, as a visitor, left for the hospital. The rest of us went to our usual placements. Rosanna went looking very elegant and reported having a wonderful time. She said she took lots of photos.

The novices had an exciting Thursday night. One of them woke at 2 a.m. in their dormitory to see something sitting on a cabinet. A bat, she thought, but then it flew round and she realized it was an owl---about 12 to 14 inches high. Anyway, it took over half an hour of all 12 novices trying to take and all 12 of them were very “giggly” about chasing an owl away!

A normal day was had by all. We had ice cream after dinner in the nice little pots. Most of us tried an Indian flavored one called Kulfi, recommended by Stephan and most delicious. After that Rosanna and Stephen left for the Safari and the rest of us retired.

Though Linda repotred that a handsome young SEAM’s boy is teaching her Tamil. We shall wait to hear more on her progress.
