without having seen the Victoria Memorial and St Paul's Cathedral. So said Pastor Asis, so he took Ali and Michelle with our friend, Edward out for a whistle stop tour of the capital.
We went first to the Hooghly river, a tributary of the Ganges past Eden Gardens, the home of the Bengal cricket team.
After a view over the river to the Howdah district - almost a kilometre away, we went to the Victoria Memorial where there was a vast exhibition of paintings and history. We then walked round to visit St Paul's Cathedral. We had a look round and then were introduced to Father James. We returned in time for our last lunch at the hostel.
Karen and Nicola rested this morning and joined us for lunch.
We're nearly all packed up now. We leave the hostel around 4pm (11.30 UK time) to catch our flight at 8.30pm.
These past two weeks have simply flown by for us. It's been quite an experience and it will take us quite some time to come to terms and reflect on all that we have experienced.
