India is big on traditions and customs – that’s what I keep learning.

It’s 11 :  16 AM on day 1824 of my journey towards independence and day 16 of our India trip 2015 went to the organized in memory of my late grandmother at St. Steven’s Orthodox Church – the service was 2 hours long most of what was said went over my head but I think it’s lovely that people pray for those who have passed and besides the church is absolutely beautiful –  and had breakfast.

This morning we went to a church service that was organized in memory of my late grandmother when she was alive she organized the same church service for my grandfather and those who had gone before her and we’ll probably do the same thing for our parents india is big on passing customs and traditions down from one generation to the next.
