Benji had yet another opportunity to visit a foreign country. On the agenda, INDIA! It was a grueling 25 hours of travel but he made it there safely and was in shock. He says it affects all your senses, sound, smell, taste and sight. Truly a culture shock. He spent most of his time in Bangalore visiting the Mozy office and then was able to spend the weekend at a coffee plantation a few hours outside of the city. He saw poverty at its worst. He is forever changed by the things that he saw and came home with a new appreciation for his life in America and how truly blessed we are. He longs to teach our boys about other places and we look forward to traveling with them when they are older so they will be exposed to the real world. We live in a nice little bubble here, we don't want our boys to think that this all there is. He was not really liking India all that much when he was there but now being home and looking back he has a true appreciation and would like to return one day.
