'The Germans are coming!'

Word around campus was: "The Germans are coming!"

Last weekend we had a special weekend full of festivities sponsored by all of the German companies in Bangalore. Funds go towards the school and the students' college educations. Employees and their families came to Shanti Bhavan for sun and sport in the shape of a weekend soccer tournament. The students here prepared all week before the big event. They were to perform classical and Bollywood dances, various Tamil plays, piano solos, and choral pieces. In addition, the Shanti Bhavan soccer team boys (and girl--- go Lilly!) drilled for the big tournament.

It was a wonderful weekend full of bbq (a rare meat-eating event for our vegetarian campus), sunburns, family, soccer players, cheerleaders (the girls had the misfortune to be under my care and still managed to cheer their team to victory), face-painting, and music!
