Warm welcome

Posted by Amy Wenk at 12:30 AM

WarmWelcome When we arrived in Rajkot, the first city on our tour, we received the most incredible welcome. Representatives from District 3060 held a banner and placed fragrant flowers around our necks. We posed for pictures outside and then rode by car to Hotel Evershine, where we will stay and rest today. The ride over came us our first glimpse of the city and India. Wow! This is certainly nothing like America. When we arrived at the hotel, PDG Kulbandhu “Bandhu” Sharma gave us a welcome speech over coffee. Now we each Bandhu are in our separate rooms to rest. Our morning starts at 8 a.m.tomorrow. We have three vocational visits: Rolex Bearing, Atul Auto and Field Marshal. We will also enjoy kite flying in the evening and dinner with members of the Rotary Club of Rajkot. I can’t wait to see the city.

Also, I am hoping to upload the four videos we have taken but have had no luck so far.

    Loved the welcome party in Japan! It was unexpected, yet very much appreciated.
