Manisha left this morning so everyone was rather down, not a brilliant way to start the day but it had to happen sometime :( I'm going to miss the Monsoon Volunteers they were here when I arrived and were so friendly and welcoming I felt at home straight away. We quickly poped to MG road to collect our tailoring and some how managed to back in time for lunch, which was rather amazing as we left MG road with less than 10mins till lunch. In the afternoon Pooja was performed on iteams around Sangam which provide people with their income such as the till in the shop, gardening tools and computers as it is part of the Dussehra festivities. Usually this occurs tomorrow but as it is a national holiday the Pooja was brought forward. After the ceremony you are given prasad and a leaf which symbolises gold for the coming year. We went out to Hard Rock in the evening for Gwen and Jill's last night with us :( It was a lovely evening but we all knew what was to come tomorrow which made me feel slightly down.
