The hallway outside R's grandma's house. The building is almost brand new. I got to pick the winner of the monthly "chick" drawing - women pool money for their own monthly lottery.



















A self portrait in captivity (after 4 days of going nowhere). At this point, I felt like an inmate in the house. Well cared for, but unable to leave.














Rasika and her best friend (at the friend's house) talking on phones. Everyone thought R needed to get a cell phone for her 3-month visit.

A cow in the street. The driver closed the car door just as I took the picture. The cow is tied to a 4 foot leash on a busy street - he can't even turn to get out of the sun.
